It seems everyone is talking about Web3. But beyond the buzzword, what exactly is Web3? Many define Web3 in terms of components: cryptocurrencies, NFTs, blockchain, decentralized domains, DAOs, etc. But to my mind, that does not explain in a clear way what makes Web3 fundamentally different...

In a recent chat, Tieshun Roquerre and I go back down memory lane as he shares how engineering a platform to hawk t-shirts led him to drop out of high school at the age of 16. In addition, we discuss the inner workings and challenges of birthing Namebase.io, diving deep into the origins of...

Hi NamePros, Browsers have always been the gatekeepers to the decentralized web. Today we’re thrilled to announce that those gates are coming down. As of today, Cloudflare has enabled native resolution of .crypto blockchain domains. The significance of this cannot be understated: billions of...
