What is Web3? with Marieke Flament

💸Blockchain technology, crypto and Web3 - you may have come across these terms, but what exactly do they mean, and how will they affect our lives? What is the technology all about and why have there been so many controversies surrounding crypto?

Please note an important point: cryptocurrency exchange FTX, at one stage the second largest company of its type in the world, filed for bankruptcy in November leaving many users unable to withdraw their funds. Its CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried, has since been arrested and charged with fraud. We recorded this episode prior to his arrest.

Regardless of the controversies, we thought it would still be valuable to understand the tech behind Web3, which is why today, I speak to Marieke Flament. Marieke is a French-born computer engineer and CEO of the NEAR Foundation, a Swiss-based non-profit that oversees the governance and development of its namesake blockchain.
