These sites have their online version, and at the same time, they have their print version of their articles.

Aside from the online and print publication of the major news organizations in the country, the Bull or Bear event was also featured in a video interview with the country's leading news provider, ABS-CBN TV Network, through the ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC).

As one of the major sponsors in the Bull or Bear Event, Hive was also featured inside the GCash Application, considered one of the leading e-wallets in the Philippines, with more than 16 million users nationwide.

Before the prominent Bull or Bear event in Cebu, the organizers prepared two separate events, one with a Twitter space attended by more than 2,000 users and the next was an in-person event in Imahica Gallery in Mandaluyong City attended by more than a hundred individuals.

Web3 Debate at the Main Event (Cebu):

The Philippine Web3 Debate in Cebu, dubbed the New Internet, started at around 5:00 PM, featuring some of the most prominent speakers in the Web3 industry and supported by the government agency, Department of Information Technology (DICT) and local politicians in Cebu City.

The Bull or Bear event started with a Web3 introduction from Bitskwela contributor Aaron Lay followed by an inspiring message and storytelling from Miss Raine LaLuna from Sphera Solutions, sharing the current trends and state of the Web3 industry in Cebu City and nearby provinces.

The introduction to Web3 and the presentation regarding the current status of Web3 in the Philippines were followed by some keynote speeches from some of the most prominent speakers and representatives of major Web3 companies.

Keynote Speeches:

The first to share his keynote speech was Nathan Senn from Hive and DBuzz, and he was introduced as one of the leaders who expanded Web3 adoption in the Philippines.

Nathan Senn graced the stage confidently with a fantastic introduction by presenting the common problems on Web2 social media, asking the audience if they have been suspended or banned online, and showed prominent personalities who have been banned despite their popularity and influence.

The veteran crypto coder then presented a solution by introducing the world's fastest-growing social media blockchain, the Hive blockchain. Nathan Senn emphasized in his keynote speech the importance of decentralization and Web3. He also reiterated that hundreds of Decentralized Applications (DApps) are built on Hive.

The Hive representative, Nathan Senn, will publish a separate in-depth article regarding his experience in the Bull or Bear Cebu and how he prepared for the highly anticipated Web3 event as a keynote speaker and debater.

Following Nathan Senn's keynote speech was Jeffrey Saenz from BitGet, discussing the transparency of centralized exchanges. According to Jeffrey, the company he worked with for more than a year BitGet, was launched in 2018.

BitGet aims to provide a comprehensive and secure trading platform with an estimated global user base of over 8 million users and over 50,000 professional traders worldwide.

After the BitGet representative's keynote speech, Crypto Pareh from Tekkon took the stage by introducing their project through an interesting question about a particular utility that we could not live without.

Tekkon's representative, Crypto Pareh, talked about how Tekkon can contribute towards Crypto adoption in the Philippines and how they can contribute to solving everyday problems like electricity.

Jaeron Wong then took the stage for his keynote, talking about CoinW in the Philippines. The CoinW representative admitted that it was his company's first time in the Philippine market as an exchange, but it was not a new company. It was born in 2017, and as a crypto enthusiast, he had six years of experience in a centralized exchange, and his company CoinW successfully registered more than 9 million users worldwide.

Web3 Debate Proper:

Six debate prompts were discussed in the successful Bull or Bear Web3 event in Cebu City. The debaters composed of Nathan Senn from Hive, Miranda Miner from Miranda Miner Group, Donald Lim from the Philippine Blockchain Council, Tyrone Bretana from Tier One, Giu Comia from Tekkon, and Ashtley Sandoval shared their sentiments on whether they were Bullish or Bearish about each topic.

The friendly debate about Web3 adoption in the Philippines started around 7:30 PM Philippine Standard Time.

The prompts included the following statements:

  1. Web3 makes committing malicious activities such as theft, fraud, and hacking easier.

  2. Web3 play-to-earn gaming is a fad.

  3. Cryptocurrencies should be used as modes of payment for goods.

  4. Web3 advocates for transparency, but in doing so, it can violate privacy.

  5. The government should fully regulate Web3 products and projects.

  6. Web3 does not need to be fully decentralized.

Summary and Significance to the Hive Community:

The Bull or Bear Web3 Debate in Cebu City was a massive success for the community of Web3 enthusiasts in the Philippines. With the support of the government agencies and local communities, it is interesting to note that the Web3 space is now gaining momentum to be adopted by the mainstream internet users in the Philippines.

The D.Buzz Team represented the world's leading social media blockchain, Hive.io, and the event generated over 20 million online impressions, according to the data published by the organizers, and made a significant impact in the Philippine Web3 communities.

Hive's visibility in Cebu City, with the support of the local community of Hive users, only proved that Cebu is a breeding ground for Hive users in the Philippines. With the enthusiasm and support they provided to the Team from Davao, Hive could become a household name in the Philippines.

The DBuzz Team, headed by Nathan Senn, inspired and impacted the Web3 community here in the Philippines. People were surprised to learn that there is a microblogging social media DApp in the country that could compete against the world's tech giants.

Having a Philippine-based decentralized application empowers Filipinos to be proud of the efforts made by the Hive Team from Davao City. This is a vast opportunity for mainstream Filipino social media users to adopt the Hive ecosystem.
