1 00:00:01.300 --> 00:00:04.400 So I am a big proponent of social media in 2 00:00:04.400 --> 00:00:07.300 web 3 and I think that's because it's probably the 3 00:00:07.300 --> 00:00:10.600 most likely entry point for the average person into 4 00:00:10.600 --> 00:00:13.100 web 3. I think that when you tell 5 00:00:13.100 --> 00:00:16.300 someone hey, would you like to own your 6 00:00:16.300 --> 00:00:19.600 digital assets? They're not going to know what you're talking about. If you 7 00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:22.300 say hey, it's all decentralized. That means nothing to 8 00:00:22.300 --> 00:00:25.300 them. But if you say Hey, you know, you can take your 9 00:00:25.300 --> 00:00:28.800 pictures with you wherever you want and Instagram can't control 10 00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:31.500 them or Facebook can't control them all of 11 00:00:31.500 --> 00:00:34.700 a sudden you caught them on something that they understand everyone 12 00:00:34.700 --> 00:00:38.200 understands their photos and their videos online. So 13 00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:40.600 if we're talking about day-to-day web 14 00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:43.200 3 like for me, I use 15 00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:47.000 Instagram sure. I use Facebook. I use Twitter, but I'm 16 00:00:46.200 --> 00:00:47.600 also thinking 17 00:00:48.500 --> 00:00:51.200 About the future and also currently I guess as well 18 00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.400 about how my pictures can be used and 19 00:00:54.400 --> 00:00:57.500 whether or not they will stay with me because I do have this fear that 20 00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:00.300 the social network will own essentially my 21 00:01:00.300 --> 00:01:03.500 life, which is basically what has happened with Facebook already because I 22 00:01:03.500 --> 00:01:06.500 was one of the first people to get on Facebook back 23 00:01:06.500 --> 00:01:09.200 in 2004 and how many years 24 00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:12.600 ago with that like 18 18 years ago and the 25 00:01:12.600 --> 00:01:15.600 problem is that I can't leave Facebook now because 26 00:01:15.600 --> 00:01:18.900 I'm stuck there. I hate Facebook but 27 00:01:18.900 --> 00:01:21.700 18 years in my life is documented in 28 00:01:21.700 --> 00:01:24.200 time stamped on there and I'd actually like 29 00:01:24.200 --> 00:01:27.700 to have that and if I could bring it with me somewhere 30 00:01:27.700 --> 00:01:30.600 else, of course people say you can do that. There's 31 00:01:30.600 --> 00:01:33.400 a and download feature from Facebook. It's 32 00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:36.200 like yeah, I just get a gigantic zip file and it's not 33 00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:39.400 time stamped or anything just a big, you know, Columbus stuff. 34 00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:42.300 That's just gonna sit my hard drive. I can't plug it into Instagram 35 00:01:42.300 --> 00:01:45.700 or bring it to tiktok or doing that stuff or something five years. 36 00:01:45.700 --> 00:01:48.100 It's worthless to me. I mean, it's great. I can put 37 00:01:48.100 --> 00:01:48.200 it on. 38 00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:51.300 Desk, and you know in the future show it to someone I guess 39 00:01:51.300 --> 00:01:54.400 but I'd like to just be able to plug it into a different social 40 00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:57.300 network. And so that's already got 41 00:01:57.300 --> 00:02:00.400 me thinking about well, how can I do that and nft is the most obvious way. 42 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.200 So if anyone had the dot Heap name, I 43 00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:07.100 could have a little tool where you can actually view your nfts 44 00:02:06.100 --> 00:02:10.000 in any web browser at all without having 45 00:02:09.100 --> 00:02:11.000 to connect the wallet. 46 00:02:11.600 --> 00:02:14.600 And for most people they're nft's right now is artwork, but 47 00:02:14.600 --> 00:02:17.500 I truly think that nfts at least jpeg FTS 48 00:02:17.500 --> 00:02:21.700 some someone yell at me on Twitter like 30 minutes ago about nfts 49 00:02:20.700 --> 00:02:23.500 are more than just pictures like yes. 50 00:02:23.500 --> 00:02:26.200 I know. Thank you for telling me. I'm well aware, 51 00:02:26.200 --> 00:02:29.600 but for a lot of you know, a lot of people pictures there's 52 00:02:29.600 --> 00:02:32.300 gonna be the starting point and there's definitely a use case for 53 00:02:32.300 --> 00:02:35.600 pictures. So I started mentioning my own social media 54 00:02:35.600 --> 00:02:38.600 photos and then at tease I think some people 55 00:02:38.600 --> 00:02:41.300 think it's crazy and I I realize that 56 00:02:41.300 --> 00:02:44.600 I made it sound a little too complicated because when people ask, how did 57 00:02:44.600 --> 00:02:47.100 you do it? I say well first I deployed my 58 00:02:47.100 --> 00:02:50.600 own spot contract on to the ethereum network and like okay, that's 59 00:02:50.600 --> 00:02:53.600 never gonna happen for me. So there's actually a shortcut you 60 00:02:53.600 --> 00:02:56.300 can use you can literally just go on to open sea, 61 00:02:56.300 --> 00:02:56.700 I know 62 00:02:57.500 --> 00:03:00.700 Open seat, not the most popular right now, but it 63 00:03:00.700 --> 00:03:03.500 is popular at the same time. You can upload any photo 64 00:03:03.500 --> 00:03:06.200 you want on to open C and then you can just 65 00:03:06.200 --> 00:03:09.300 send it to your own wallet, and it will be an 66 00:03:09.300 --> 00:03:11.400 actual 11:55 nft. 67 00:03:12.100 --> 00:03:15.500 So if you want to have an nft of yourself people like Sean, 68 00:03:15.500 --> 00:03:18.900 you have a picture of yourself as an NFP that's amazing. 69 00:03:18.900 --> 00:03:21.300 You must be an advanced genius. No, you 70 00:03:21.300 --> 00:03:24.400 can literally just upload a photo to open C and set it 71 00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:27.200 to your wallet and it's an ft. I mean that's not what I personally did for 72 00:03:27.200 --> 00:03:30.400 my profile picture, but anyone can do that and so 73 00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:33.400 you're up to the races with using social media and 74 00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:36.100 nfps combined. That's what I think the future is going to be. 75 00:03:37.200 --> 00:03:40.200 And so right now if you have if you have any photos 76 00:03:40.200 --> 00:03:43.500 that you'd like anyone else to see that's not nft inclined. You 77 00:03:43.500 --> 00:03:46.300 can just give them your dot eat name and say hey just plug 78 00:03:46.300 --> 00:03:49.300 this into a browser type it into a browser and then just put 79 00:03:49.300 --> 00:03:53.600 dot photos at the end of it and they'll be able to see your nfg jpegs. 80 00:03:52.600 --> 00:03:55.200 I talked about it on Twitter all the 81 00:03:55.200 --> 00:03:58.100 time, but I think it's a really easy tool because you don't 82 00:03:58.100 --> 00:04:01.400 really need to tell the other person. It's nft involved at all. 83 00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:04.300 And so you raise an interesting point. This is 84 00:04:04.300 --> 00:04:07.300 the missing link in all of it. People would say Sean, that's 85 00:04:07.300 --> 00:04:10.400 cool. But you know, how do people like my 86 00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:13.300 pictures and that's obviously the next step is 87 00:04:13.300 --> 00:04:16.300 bringing your social network with you because once you 88 00:04:16.300 --> 00:04:16.800 could do that, 89 00:04:17.500 --> 00:04:20.200 I don't really know what Instagram or Facebook would really be 90 00:04:20.200 --> 00:04:23.700 able to offer other than potentially just the user 91 00:04:23.700 --> 00:04:26.200 experience. You know, they've got experience putting a platform 92 00:04:26.200 --> 00:04:29.300 together. But if you control your pictures and then 93 00:04:29.300 --> 00:04:32.400 you can also control your social network your followers and you 94 00:04:32.400 --> 00:04:36.400 can go into any platform and not lose anything. That's Game 95 00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:38.300 Changer. But in the meantime anyone can 96 00:04:38.300 --> 00:04:41.400 look at anyone's photos, and so that's that's real 97 00:04:41.400 --> 00:04:42.700 life web 3 today.
