Web3 for the Culture: The Study Guide 📓

Hey fam!

It’s officially the first week of December, so you know what that means… Spotify just confirmed for the 5th year in a row that Kendall is in the top 0.5% of listeners for Beyonce (yes, CUFF IT was and still is on repeat), finals are underway for most students (re: us!), and the end of 2022 is rapidly approaching. And wow–what a whirlwind it’s been, especially in web3. 

Now before we go any further, we have just one ask of you. Please take 2 minutes to provide us with FEEDBACK about Web3 for the Culture. We want to make this a worthwhile experience for everyone, so the more you share with us the better we can educate our community.

In the spirit of completing evaluations, making study guides, and preparing for finals, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the journey we’ve been on over this past year. This week, we’re switching things up and doing a short recap of what we’ve learned together since starting Web3 for the Culture. For those who have been rocking with us since the beginning, this should all feel familiar! For those of you who joined our community over the most recent months, hopefully this encourages you to check out a new article and share with a friend.
