Jess Sloss and Cooper Turley: Social Tokens Are Rearchitecting Community and Social Engagement

Chain Reaction Hosts Tom Shaughnessy and Piers Kicks host Jess Sloss, of Seed Club, and Cooper Turley, of Audius, to discuss social tokens and their must read 2020 social tokens post.

Social tokens are a nascent and budding opportunity in crypto and frankly, there are limited sources of information right now. To combat that and unveil the opportunity we had on two experts to help educate the Delphi Community on social tokens and their importance. The four talk numbers, use cases, key launches, what’s ahead, the differences between social and DeFi tokens, and much more.
