What is your why? This episode is a journey through personal motivations in the tech industry, particularly in the realm of Web3 domain names and digital identity. I share an intimate story about onboarding my non-technical mother into the world of cryptocurrency and NFTs, a transformative experience that deepened my commitment to educating others. We reflect on recent experiences at NamesCon, where networking and evaluating our educational outreach became a central theme, inspiring us to ponder how to reach everyday individuals who might benefit from Web3 technology but lack access to current resources.
The integration of Web 2 and Web 3 domaining sessions at NamesCon and CloudFest marks an exciting evolutionary step in domain technology discussions. We explore how this collaboration fosters inclusivity and raises awareness about the potential of these technologies. From delightful side events at places like Pelon's Mexican restaurant to informal yet impactful networking sessions at the Omni Hotel, we recount moments that embodied the event's collaborative spirit. Special encounters, like our enthusiastic conversation with Kevin from .CFD, underline the forward-thinking ambiance that permeated the conference.
Emerging trends and challenges in the Web3 domain space are at the forefront of our discussion, with key highlights from NamesCon and the Right of the Dot auction illustrating market dynamics. Significant bids for Web3 domains such as X.NFT and .SEO demonstrate the growing interest and valuation in this space. We emphasize the critical need for continued innovation, particularly in the usability of Web3 TLDs with services like MetaMask and Ether scan. Addressing both internal challenges and the potential for domain collision, the episode underscores the importance
