    Ep6: What is Web3? I Want my Grandmother to Understand

    In this episode, we break down the concept of Web3 into its simplest format. It is a word that is ubiquitous with the new internet, blockchain, and many other concepts that have rocked the world wide web. We start with the internet in its preceding formats, #Web1 enamored by its read capabilities, #Web2 with its content creation on platforms, and finally #Web3 a version of the internet that is trustless and where users are in complete control of their data and ownership is king.

    Ever wondered how to make the big career jump into #Crypto or #NFT? Today we're joined by Miss Purple (the Co-Founder of the Monahano NFT community) to explore the "not so straight" path people take to make a name for themselves in #Web3. (Hints: it starts with curiosity). Miss Purple is a self-described science nerd and a co-host of the Bankless Africa podcasts. She is very passionate about impact and community building.

    Ep2: Understanding the Legal Side of Web3 in Africa with Norman Gabula

    In order for crypto and all the Web3 innovations in Africa to work, the continent needs to understand the legal implications in both the real world and digital assets. Norman Gabula has spent the last four years working with some of the top startups in the crypto space on the continent. His journey has not been easy and he has seen many changes starting as early as 2017. He has witnessed a lot of ICOs, rug pulls, and more recently a smart contract mistake that cost him over $17,000. Join us as Norman shares his journey in the crypto space in Africa and his most recent role in volunteering at ETHSafari, a web3 conference held in Kenya that brought in attendees from more than 40 countries to discuss how Web3 (crypto, NFTs, and blockchain) will continue to shape not just Kenya but the whole continent.
