Building a Network State in Web3 ft. Suji, Founder of Mask Network

EP.231

GM,

When I write articles, I like to search for cases in the reality to serve as comparisons. This helps me understand the operational logic behind new terms. For example, understanding DAO becomes much easier when likened to a cooperative, or explaining RetroPGF by using social impact bonds illustrates the underlying concepts without being entirely novel inventions.

Currently, some people use the historical context of nation-building in the physical world to comprehend the current development of Web3. This aids in understanding the stage we are currently in and the direction in which the future is likely to unfold. In this episode of Blocktrend, we have invited Suji, the founder of Mask Network, for a conversation. During the recording process, he draws parallels with the founding histories of the United States and the Republic of China to elucidate the current development of Web3, helping everyone gain insights from the past to navigate the future.

This episode covers:

  • Taiwan's greater decentralization compared to Hong Kong and Singapore.
  • The evolution from digital serfdom to a networked nation.
  • Software developers as the knights of the digital world.
  • Democracy doesn't come out of nowhere; the digital world is no exception.
  • Similarities between the founding histories of the United States, the Republic of China, and Web3.
