#209: NFTS on Instagram and other web3 things coming

Changing The Story with Lana Dingwall

A few weeks ago IG announced it was beta testing integrating NFTs onto its platform and so far things are going well.

Youtube, Meta (aka facebook), Amazon, Shopify, Stripe and other content hosting platforms and commerce based businesses now officially all have web3 teams who are using, building, and integrating blockchain technology.

What the heck does this mean?!

It means that many of the platforms, applications and tools we use in our businesses are taking web3 seriously - which means that we should too.

This doesn’t mean drop everything and go deep dive (unless you want to of course), but it does mean that starting to get curious and learn more about them is important.

If we look back on even just the last 5 years, a lot of social media platforms have shifted, content creation looks different, technology is more advanced and we can do cooler things and it's easier than ever to get paid online doing something you love.

It’s safe to say that the same will be true 5 years from now.

Web3 isn’t a destination, it's simply the evolution of the internet. We started with read only, then went to read and write (where we are now) and its moving to read, write, own. Ownership means we own our content, data etc the same way we do our email lists and websites, but not really anything else we create on the internet.

This week's podcast episode dives into some of what this will look like, how you can learn more and some ideas on how you might utilize some of this technology in your own business.

If you’re curious about learning more or even how to create your own NFT, social token or something else web3 related, my inbox is always open to help.

Just like we talked about last week, little steps add up. Learning even a little bit today, can help you tomorrow.

You’ve got this!

Until next week,

Lana
