Social Media Betting & more w/ T H of Kizzy | Ep. 50

In episode #50 of Internet Explorers, Jess and Josh dive into several major topics shaping the Web3 space. They start exploring Kizzy, a social betting app that's gaining traction on the Monad chain, offering users a platform to speculate on creators and influencers much like a "DraftKings for social media", with it's founder, T H. The hosts explore how Kizzy is revolutionizing engagement by financializing social media, making betting on creators as engaging as sports betting.

The episode also covers Seed Club's acquisition of Build with Joey, the co-founder of Backdrop, the company that developed Build. Build is an exciting development in the world of decentralized accelerators, and the hosts discuss how this merger will support Web3 builders by providing a platform that scales with emerging blockchain projects. They then shift gears to talk about CultureFi, debating the cultural and economic impacts of token-driven systems on digital platforms.

Wrapping up, they discuss the launch of PvP in the blockchain gaming space and highlight the rising interest in Unichain, a new project focused on scaling decentralized applications. The episode finishes with a fast-paced Lightning Round, covering recent updates and emerging trends in Web3.
