Since the Web3 piece was released, I had initially been trying to find a solution to expanding on providing living wages to more people that don't rely on larger platforms to be intermediaries. As I researched, a clear path forward wasn't clear to me, so I transitioned to think at a broader level. Recently we saw large announcements for acquisitions of Activision-Blizzard and Bungie. These consolidations of large entities are troubling as a small creator. Will we one day have to make exclusivity deals in hopes of insulating ourselves from the costs of creating? Or can we find better solutions so that content can be monetized directly between the producer and consumer?

Web3 seems to be gaining more and more mind share in the tech world these days. I recently listened to a podcast between Chris Dixon and Naval Ravikant on the Tim Ferriss show. I found the juggling act between Chris and Naval instrumental in thinking about the ideas in the space of Web3. I've said before that crypto is only scratching the surface of what's coming. I wanted to share some of the ideas I found interesting from this conversation and other thoughts on Web3.

With the upcoming release of Spider-Man: No Way Home, I started thinking about an idea. How far away are we from being able to engineer Spider-Man? Sure we can escape into sci-fi territory very fast, but what technology or research is being done that could plausibly get us to a Spider-Man-like ability set. In this Feeding Frenzy, we take stock of research being to bring the powers of Spider-Man to our world.
