Web3 made a vast boom several years ago. But what about now? Is the infamous technology here to stay? At last week's #CultTechSummit in Vienna, Jantine Derksen (Founder at Matters) moderated a discussion between Stina Gustafsson (Independent Curator and Art strategist) and Assaf Reeb (Founder and Creative Director at XXII Studio). According to them, the hype has passed. What do you think? Will the decentralized web still be relevant in future? #wiit #web3 #dao
