Cryptokitties.

Decentralized web.

But I think there will be bigger things to come in the years to come. I will continue to keep building.

 

📈 What tech or crypto trend are you watching this year?

Web4, AI, NFT, and gaming trends.

 

🤝 What advice would you give someone starting out in Web3?

Your top priority when starting out in Web3 should be to do thorough research. Though there’s a lot of hype around Web3 and blockchain, not all projects or tokens are worth investing in.

Keep in mind that Web3 is a rapidly evolving industry, so buckle up for a potentially bumpy ride. Be ready for fluctuating prices, unexpected project launches, and ever-changing regulations.

Despite the risks, don’t forget to enjoy the journey and all the incredible opportunities that Web3 technology offers.

 

🎤 If you could do a TEDtalk on any topic, what would it be?

Web4, is the second generation of the decentralized web.

 

🚨 What is the one thing you would bring if you were stuck on a deserted Island?

I had to bring just one thing to make my life easier, I’d go for a solar charger! I could keep my phone charged and alive for as long as possible.

Who knows, maybe I could even get some reception and call for help. Or maybe just scroll through social media to pass the time, let’s be real.
