How Elon Buying Twitter Will Affect Web3

from Creators of Web3 Hosted by Eric Siu and Wil Lee

In today’s episode, we discuss how Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter will affect Web3. This is an ever-changing and somewhat messy story with a lot of moving parts. It’s also a story that will likely continue to stretch out over a number of months, which is why we’ve put together a guide for how one of the biggest tech deals in history will impact Web3 and how you can prepare for these changes. Tune in today to learn more! TIME-STAMPED SHOW NOTES: [00:04] A look at the timeline of the Elon Musk-Twitter saga. [00:27] What stands out about this story when it comes to the blockchain? [00:55] Our take on Musk’s master plan to decentralize Twitter. [02:02] What Musk’s proposed ‘super app’, X, will mean for users. [03:11] How decentralization will promote more “free speech.” [03:37] Why this is a good example of taking something from Web2 to Web3. [03:50] Understanding why Musk wanted to back out of the deal. Tweetables: “Web3 is the core of this entire application because [it seems like the argument] is always against centralization. They want to be able to create something that is decentralized.” — @willxlee [0:01:11] “This [deal] will also be a really good example of taking something from Web2 to Web3 and it’s going to be a nice map for people to follow in the future.” — @ericosiu [0:03:37] Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Wilson Lee on Twitter Wilson Lee on Instagram Eric Siu on Twitter Eric Siu on Instagram The Littles Leveling Up Leveling Up Heroes Growth Everywhere Single Grain
