Still, the metaverse vision is likely 10 years away. Who said that first? You know it was me. How to make the metaverse more inclusive. In case you were wondering.
CoreDAO, LayerZero partner on blockchain interoperability.
One Web3 business in New Orleans will let you use their restroom at Mardi Gras, but only if you have an NFT. Ain’t that a bunch of crap. Literally.

Posts from Hive
@blocktunes shares how music fans can earn by curating on Hive.
@taskmaster4450 shares a couple of new developments on Hive. One of those is the announcement of a podcasting service for Hive called Cast Garden. Looks pretty cool too. In fact, Unkle Bonehead and I use it for the Defluenced podcast.
@wolfgangsport showcases the 10 fastest serves in tennis history. Seriously, there’s something for everyone on Hive.

@dbooster shares insights shares insights on how to be successful writing on Hive.

Is LBRY dying a slow death? The demise will likely come sooner rather than later, but let’s be fair. The SEC didn’t do LBRY, or the crypto industry, any favors with its hefty fine. However, LBRY hasn’t exactly been kind to itself either. One could say it was doomed to fail from the start.
Mike Zillo says BTC price is consolidating.
