  • From ownership to opportunity, Web3 is still on a mission to reshape music
    Cointelegraph.com - 13:30 Jun 10, 2025
    Cointelegraph and Audius are launching a remix contest to spotlight how decentralized platforms are empowering artists and redefining creative ownership to reshape the music industry. As streaming platforms dominate music distribution, artists have increasingly found themselves sidelined and earning fractions of pennies per play, all while relying on centralized platforms to reach fans.  However, in a corner of the digital world, a new wave of creators, developers and platforms are exploring how Web3 tools can offer an alternative.  Decentralized, Web3-native music platforms have emerged in recent years to offer artists more control over their content, more direct access to their audiences and better monetization models.  Read more

  • Spoiler alert: The future of Web3 is not blockchain
    Cointelegraph.com - 15:00 May 23, 2025
    Blockchain's rigidity limits Web3. Web3's scalability and future lie beyond traditional blockchains. Expect a shift toward flexible, verifiable systems prioritizing efficiency over rigid total ordering Opinion by: Grigore Roșu, founder and chief executive officer of Pi Squared For some, the audacity of questioning the primacy of blockchain in Web3 is borderline heretical. The idea that decentralization and progress could exist without blockchains seems absurd to those who built careers around Bitcoin, Ethereum, and their descendants. Given blockchain's well-documented scaling limits, however, there is an argument to be made that Web3 doesn't actually need blockchains to thrive. Instead, it requires payment systems and verifiable settlement systems that are super fast. Blockchains are just one way to achieve that, not the only way. While blockchain solved the double-spending problem, it introduced its own architectural burden: the rigid fixation on total ordering, dictating that every transaction must wait its...

  • Safeheron introduces open-source Intel SGX TEE framework for Web3 security
    Cointelegraph.com - 14:43 May 07, 2025
    Security should be transparent, auditable, and accessible to everyone building in this space, a Safeheron spokesperson told Cointelegraph.

  • After Zora airdrop goes awry, what’s next for Web3 creator economy?
    Cointelegraph.com - 14:00 May 03, 2025
    Web3 social network Zora’s recent airdrop led to a wave of discontent on social media, but creators and builders are convinced that the future of creativity is still onchain. Onchain social network Zora has built a reputation as a popular tool for artists, musicians and other creatives to monetize their content onchain, but the recent launch of its eponymous ZORA token has left many users confused and dissatisfied. The token’s price tanked shortly after launch, with users and observers complaining about everything from poor communication from the team to the token’s distribution and utility models.  This comes amid an overall decline in interest in the onchain creator economy and a changing perspective on whether blockchain tools like non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are still useful for creatives who want to monetize their work on the blockchain.
