Synopsis
THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
‘A compelling vision of where the internet should go and how to get there.’ Sam Altman, CEO, OpenAI
The promise of the internet has been stolen.
Over the last decade, a handful of giant companies like Facebook and Google have seized control of the web – sapping its dynamism and taking its profits for themselves.
But there is a way to take it back.
Here, a leading Silicon Valley investor argues that blockchains – the radically free and democratic new type of software design that underpins ‘web3’ – could return financial and decision-making power to the internet’s users. For the first time, we won’t just read and write on the internet – we will own it, too.
‘A must for anyone who wants to better understand the real potential of blockchains and web3.’ Bob Iger, CEO, Disney
‘A refreshing and radical new take at a time when we need fresh thinking more than ever.’ Mustafa Suleyman, co-founder of DeepMind and author of The Coming Wave
‘The most elegant and sophisticated argument for blockchain to date . . . Shines as a history of computing and the internet.’ Fortune
