Of Note This Week - January 28th 2022 Edition

What’s this all about? We realized through the week we consume and discuss so many interesting things that we may never come back to or write a full post about, but others might be interested in digging in deeper. As a result we’re trying this new format that we’re calling “Of Note This Week” where we just add quick notes to things we’ve digested or random interesting things we’ve discussed on our calls. We’d love to hear if you get anything out of it, or feel free to join the discussion!

Web3 and NFT for Good

We’re huge fans of organizations doing good through social impact initiatives, and we’re also budding students of crypto, web3 and NFTs. I originally thought NFTs were just a bunch of jpegs being auctioned off at ridiculous prices, but then I dug deeper into ways these technologies could revolutionize social impact. I found this report from Stanford’s Center for Social Innovation. Lots to digest and lots to be hopeful for!

Interested in taking action against climate change? There’s a crypto project for you - check out KlimaDAO. The team aims to create a system that settles carbon pricing and offsets in real-time, with the potential to fully embed the cost of carbon into everyday transactions.

Hope you all have a great weekend!
