Approaching Diversity and Inclusion Through a New Lens in Web3
If there’s anything we’ve learned in the age of Web2, it’s that people’s lives are rarely what they seem online. It can be nice to enter into a virtual world where you can explore anything, meet anyone, and discover endless opportunities. But the damage that’s been done is clear: presenting only the most ideal versions of ourselves on the internet has ravaged mental health. Even internal documents from Meta (formerly Facebook) show that Instagram is harmful to teenage girls. People’s lives — especially those of young adults — have been significantly affected by the ever-deepening divide between reality and online […]
Australia Zoo Partners to Launch NFTs on Carbon Negative Blockchain
Time and again, NFTs have proven to be viable tools for funding noble causes. They’ve been used to raise money for wartime refugees, medical debt forgiveness, and conservation efforts. That last application for NFTs is particularly poignant, considering how the environmental impact of Ethereum — the most widely used blockchain for NFTs — is one of the most often levied points of criticism towards NFTs as a whole. This is part of what motivated Australian green NFT startup Meadow Labs’ to partner with Australia Zoo on the Wildlife Warriors NFT drop. The drop celebrates the 20th anniversary of the wildlife […]
Media3: How NFTs and Web3 Are Reshaping Storytelling
Storytelling is, in many ways, the fabric of our culture. Our narratives help us understand our past and articulate our values — they tell us who we are and who we want to be. But there’s a problem. In recent decades, the power of storytelling has rested almost entirely in the hands of publishers and media executives. For years, gatekeepers determined what tales get told. They decided what type of content gets created and how and when people can access it. However, thanks to Web3 technologies, this is finally beginning to change. Instead of relying on studios or other gatekeepers, […]
Solana NFT Trading Volume Exceeded a Whopping $2 Billion
Ethereum’s main counterpart, the Solana blockchain, is breaking all records in recent days. Thus, the protocol has surpassed $2.35 billion in all-time NFT sales the other day, outperforming all other NFT-related cryptos, except for Ethereum, of course. The whopping figure was recorded on June 5th, even though the blockchain is recovering from the 2022 Q2 bearish trend. Just a few weeks ago, the $SOL market cap fell by over $14 billion. But currently, there are definitely some reasons to celebrate, as May marked the first time when Solana exceeded the 24-hour Ethereum NFT trading volume. Of course, at the moment, […]
We Create a Collection of 10,000 Gemstones Just Like Nature did It in the Real World — Creator’s Interview
On this joyful day, my guest is Elizaveta, jewellery designer and founder of Body-Positive Gems NFT. Chris: The concept behind the creation of Body positive Gems is intense! Please share the concept and explain what led you to build the NFT series. Elizaveta: Gemstone is not a key, a ticket or a pass.

Like gems exist in the real world, so there are gems in the metaverse. Yes, you can use […]

In Defense of Spam Score and the Concept of a Toxic Link
I’m writing this after John Mueller caused a minor stir on Twitter on Monday, with this post: The concept of toxic links is something that’s made up by SEO tools — I’d just ignore it, and perhaps move on to more serious tools. — 🐝 johnmu.xml (personal) 🐝 (@JohnMu) June 6, 2022 Now, at Moz we do not actually use this “toxic” language in our tools or accompanying guides, so this probably isn’t aimed at us. That said, I do think there’s an interesting discussion to be had here, and our competitor Ahrefs made an interesting conclusion about how this […]
