Get a sneak peek into the future of technology, finance, and the metaverse

In The Web3 Era: NFTs, the Metaverse, Blockchain and the Future of the Decentralized Internet, renowned finance and technology expert David Shin connects pivotal moments from the history of human progress and global trade with current events that are shaping the world of tomorrow. This fascinating and insightful exploration delves into the long-term, next-level use cases of non-fungible tokens and digital assets, and their implications for industries leveraging these advancements.

In the book, you’ll find discussions of the challenges and opportunities for institutions as they await the arrival of the Web3 space; how old Western central powers are struggling to keep up with the digital currencies of the East; and why our voices will matter as consensus-driven tribes converge to form DAOs. You’ll also discover the potential of blockchain as a pivotal engine for driving the metaverse economy and transforming contemporary web infrastructure into a decentralized network of free trade and social interaction governed by users themselves.

The author covers topics that include:

  • The potential institution of a smart treasury in a digital economy
  • The convergence of metaverse infrastructure with decentralized finance, creating a virtual world of open finance
  • Use cases for government-backed digital tokens in a variety of industries, including education, healthcare, and banking
  • Social interactions and commerce tied to Soulbound-identity, A.I. technology, archaeological revelations, de-dollarization, and the rising Global South

An essential and one-of-a-kind resource for business leaders, executives, entrepreneurs, investors, and finance professionals, The Web3 Era: NFTs, the Metaverse, Blockchain and the Future of the Decentralized Internet will also benefit technology enthusiasts, digital marketers, and digital transformation specialists. It offers invaluable insights into the future of technology and finance for anyone who believes that we are in need of a new system of governance for a better tomorrow.
