This Week in the Metaverse: EP.08
To Blockchain or Not, Meta’s Hiring Cuts, Soba’s UGC Ambitions
On the eighth episode of This Week in the Metaverse, Yon is still on vacation so Matthew is joined by Aaron Bush, the co-founder of Naavik.
We broke down three news items that we thought were influential to the development of the metaverse and on which we believe we can provide unique expertise and analysis.
First, we debate the need for blockchain in the metaverse and what role the technology can and will play over time.
Then, we dive into reports that Meta is slowing its hiring pace substantially.
And lastly, we discuss the boom in user-generated content platforms after Soba raised a $13.5 million seed round.
We would love to hear from you with topics and guests that you would like to hear about, and from, on our podcast. DMs are open: Yon | Matthew.
