⚡️ OVERVIEW:
Why web3 design is so bad and what we can do to make it better.
We'll review the current state of web3 and shed some light on the complex usability problems that need to be solved - but this isn't just theory, we'll also look at some live projects and talk about practical steps that can be taken as we build the next generation of web3 projects. This will cover both incredibly granular issues such as "what side do I put the token on?" to much larger issues around security, ownership, and integration with the rest of the web.
🥡 KEY TAKEAWAYS:
In this Lecture, you will learn:
1.The current state of web3 UX.
2.What bottlenecks are limiting improvements (aka why does this stuff have to be so difficult?!).
3.Some simple things you can do to build better web3 projects right now (with examples of real projects that I have worked on).
4.What the next generation of web3 projects might look like.
