Digital Mavericks

WELCOME TO THE NEW INTERNET "A fun, accessible, and inspiring read for anyone looking to make sense of crypto and find their place in the constantly evolving world of technology." -Ben Roy, investor in Internet culture From online to onchain, the Internet as we know it is about to change forever. Digital Mavericks is your key to understanding and taking part in a revolution toward a fairer, more open digital economy. From the early days of dial-up to the social media explosion of the late 2000s, we are now entering the early innings of discovering how blockchain technology will reshape our creativity, careers, and how we interact with each other. This book provides a practical 7-step guide--a roadmap for anyone eager to navigate this rapidly changing and often crazy digital landscape. From discovering your purpose to finding your community and cutting through the noise, it also looks ahead to the impact of generative AI, shifting regulations, and other important technologies shaping tomorrow. At its heart, Digital Mavericks is powered by the stories of real-life trailblazers--from artists to technologists, from entrepreneurs to investors--all of whom are everyday people who have charted their own paths as digital pioneers. Each of them has faced challenges, broken down barriers, and taken a leap of faith to claim their place in this increasingly onchain world. Their journeys, complete with both triumphs and struggles, serve as an open invitation to anyone who's daring enough to join them in shaping the future of the Internet. Will that be you?
