Ed3 Weekly Issue #153: What's the Web3 Meta?

Ideas around web3 and its implications for how we relate to technology are growing

Mar 25, 2025

Hello Ed3 frens,

In many ways I see myself as a bridge. It could be my upbringing as an outsider in Hawaii, or just my elusive nature. But I have always felt like I operate a little outside the norm.

This helps give me a unique perspective and keeps me from being tied down to one ideology.

This can be helpful in the web3 space especially as it shifts from concepts to products. Something as ephemeral as blockchain can be hard to grasp and understand. By existing in between the worlds of traditional education and innovative technology I am well-positioned to help bring these two worlds together.

The deep dive this week touches on that from a writer who shares her experience in the web3 space.

This idea is an important part of what web3 and blockchain can bring to our thinking. As a conceptual framework, it can help us go beyond our known boundaries and imagine new ways of seeing the world.

I invite you to check out the other resources for this week and imagine what a new and evolving world can look like with blockchain technology.
