36. Re-bundling the creator economy + labels in web3 w/ Yancey Strickler

By having that freedom you can find the spaces you align the most with.The desires of the post-individual are different than what we had in the past.

Personal storyAfter leaving Kickstarter started Yancey started to investigate the system of valueWhich led him to publish a book called This Could be Our Future.

About his approach to crypto Got into crypto when he understood that it is an opportunity to define values numerically, to express them in a new medium, to build systems that respond to an input and desired output beyond just the growth rate or financial take of a system.

The ways to provide context on our digital profiles (e.g. Linktree) are very limited. The creator economy does a poor job at that.

Every creator has a group that they can BELONG if they choose to.

A matrix of values vs a singular idea of value.

Thinking of a project as a label means thinking in “Releases”. Releasing work into the public and letting it go.

A group of people - a purpose - a set of releases. That concept has been around for a long time

A core strategy of what we build at Metalabel is based on the assumption that CONTEXT is queen.

Web3 is about the freedom to opt-in to systems and to opt-out of them.
