You.Me.Web3. Magazine

YOU.ME.WEB3 continues to spotlight inspiring entrepreneurs shaping the future of Web3. We explore how Web3 is transforming lives across industries and everyday experiences — from finance and art to housing, education, and beyond.

We’re excited to present an interview with Anil Altas Brug and her company, Turboslow. In this interview, we are diving into the ways her projects bring Web3 closer to real human needs and experiences.

Discover the humans of tomorrow—Netizens. They live, think, and evolve in step with technology. Our digital presence is one of the key drivers behind the development and adoption of the Metaverse.

In this edition, we sit down with futurist Costantino Roselli, TED Talk speaker and founder of NTZNS, to explore the rise of Netizens and discuss how the Metaverse is reshaping our businesses, daily lives, and the future of human identity. How quickly will this digital transformation become the new norm—and how can you be ready?

In the crypto world, where prices can swing dramatically in just minutes, stablecoins can bring a sense of stability and predictability. Among them, USD Coin (USDC) has emerged as a leading player, widely recognized as one of the safest and most trusted stablecoins in the market.

In this edition, Olga Dovgopolyi shares what makes USDC stand out, explores its key benefits, compares it to competitors, and considers what the future may hold for this influential digital asset.

Art is a constantly evolving, fluid phenomenon. In the age of AI, technology is not only shaping but also expanding the boundaries of artistic creation. With the rise of NFTs, AI-generated works, and digitalization, art is entering new and uncharted territory. This digital revolution opens exciting possibilities while also challenging traditional ideas of value and ownership.

In this interview, we speak with digital art advisor Georg Bak to explore how technology is transforming artistic expression and what the future holds at the intersection of creativity and innovation.

While the initial hype around the metaverse has cooled down, real-world applications, such as digital twins of cities in VR, are gaining momentum. Even though the metaverse remains in its early stages, those who enter now have a unique chance to shape and even lead this evolving space.

One such pioneer is DWorld VR, an ambitious project dedicated to recreating real-world cities and countries in the metaverse. In this edition, we spotlight its Founder, Manila Di Giovanni. She shares insights into the current state of virtual tourism and why it matters.

In this week’s edition, we’ll talk about the importance of building a strong community within the Web3 space.

It’s inspiring to see the growing number of initiatives aimed at uniting people and strengthening the Web3 ecosystem. Web3 is about more than individual success; it’s about building a collaborative network that uplifts everyone involved.

Alexandra Overgaag, CEO of Thrilld Labs, shares with Lab51 how her vision for a barrier-free Web3 platform fosters true collaboration and community. She discusses the inspiration behind Thrilld, the power of decentralization, and what’s next for the Web3 space.

The idea of integrating AI into education can spark a wide range of reactions. On the one hand, it can help improve the learning process. On the other hand, it leads to students misusing technology and reduces the human element in education. Thus, AI challenges traditional education methods.

In this issue of You.Me.Web3., Viktor Nagy, Co-Founder tellmee by AIMINE Systems, and a Sales Manager at Wolt, explores the practical applications of AI in education.

In recent years, media interest in NFTs has declined. However, the concept of non-fungible tokens is finding success in other tech sectors. A great example of this is the Swiss Post Crypto Stamp.

Check out our recent interview with Julien Jordan, Product Manager of Stamps & Philately at Swiss Post, where he explains how the Swiss Crypto Stamp was designed, how it works, and what its significance is.

The introduction of Apple Vision Pro and Gemini has enriched the Web3 space with fresh innovations. Yet, it's not just these launches shaping its trajectory; let’s not forget about such trends as tokenization and decentralization.

Drawing on her deep Web3 expertise, Sunny Jiang sheds light on the sector's rapid research advancements, the emergence of impact-driven entrepreneurs, and the significant impact of institutional involvement on widespread adoption. Despite the progress, she points out ongoing challenges in regulation and liquidity that the industry faces.

Art has always been a dynamic and evolving entity, reflecting the technological and cultural shifts of its time. From the cave paintings of prehistoric times to the Renaissance masterpieces, and onto the modern digital creations, the methods of creating art have continually expanded. Today, with the appearance of new technologies, we can already say that blockchain and NFTs represent not the future, but our current presence of art. 

In this edition, made according to our YOU.ME.WEB3 weekly podcasts, we feature Dr. Annette Doms, Digital & Fine Art Advisor, Web3 Evangelist, Public Speaker, Founding Partner xcircle & NFTory. In the discussion together with Mark Forster, we had a conversation about NFT's role in the art field, its benefits, and challenges.

Very gradually, our world is inexorably shifting towards Web3, a realm where the physical and digital realms intermingle, giving birth to a novel and distinctive phenomenon that we've called 'phygital.'

It's perfectly ordinary that many of us have yet to grasp the comprehending of this concept. Our understanding remains in the realm of abstract notions, simply because it's an entirely new paradigm. Is it physical, yet not quite? Simultaneously, is it not entirely digital either?

In this publication, in collaboration with Jamie Bykov-Brett (Social Entrepreneur, Digital Innovation Specialist, AI & Digital Identity Thematic Lead, Workshop Facilitator & Futurist Educator) we will uncover the meaning of 'phygital,' examine its current presence in the world, analyze its impact on the market, and explore strategies for adapting to the future.

Despite the waning hype in mass media surrounding Web3 and the Metaverse, we're witnessing tangible applications taking root in the real world.

Blockchain and cryptocurrencies, once confined to the realm of tech enthusiasts' imaginations, are now actively reshaping industries and unlocking novel possibilities.

Our distinguished guest, PR & Communications Manager at Xprizo™, Program Director at TMRW Conference Anita Kalergis, affectionately known as Kryptogranny, enriches this conversation with a distinctive perspective. Armed with a background in marketing and sales, Anita embarked on an extraordinary journey within this domain. Her insights illuminate the educational and therapeutic potentials inherent in these technologies, paving the way for a future marked by transformative possibilities.

Web3 is reaching different areas, and healthcare is no exception. Combining Web3 with healthcare sounds futuristic and full of promise: This mix offers a patient-focused approach, giving people more control and access to new and improved treatments. Indeed, it's an exciting time in healthcare, with endless possibilities.

Nevertheless, there are also important questions about ethics, laws, and morals that we need to figure out.

In our first edition of "You. Me. Web3." Magazine, we talk to Amir Bozorgzadeh, the Co-founder & CEO of Virtuleap. He explains how Web3 and healthcare intersect and how these new technologies are already helping patients today.
