Aptos: How Web3 Infrastructure Can Shape the Future of Gaming, Social Media, Commerce and More

Part of Consensus 2023

This event took place on Thursday, April 27, 2023 at 4:45 PM UTC.

Location: Austin Convention Center: Protocol Village. Cracks are forming in the legacy platforms that have sustained the digital economy for over a decade. At the same time, the digital economy is booming, with creators, innovators, and the general public benefitting from advances in experiences, commercial opportunities, and interactions between people and trusted online accounts. Creators, in particular, are looking for the next playgrounds and workspaces to take audiences and sell merchandise across platforms. They want to bring swag onto Fortnite, livestream on YouTube or Twitch, and yes, even dance on TikTok. But the reality is that none of the Web2 platforms offer an exceptional experience – or, frankly, even interoperability. Aptos Labs CTO Avery Ching will outline where Web3 tech fits into this unique cultural moment and what it offers to human connection, finance, gaming, social media, sports and even visual art.
