Seed Club

This is that moment

Many of us arrive at this moment wrung out by the pursuit of escape velocity Web2 prioritized explosive growth at the expense of users Centralized brands extracted our collective brilliance for the sake of their balance sheets Social network monoliths captured our attention while robbing us of our creative agency The gig economy broke us

Seed Club Welcomes New Strategic Partners

The web is in crisis The value created by communities on the internet is currently captured by platforms – and we believe this is a failure of the web Web2 social unlocked unprecedented connectivity, but this came at the expense of our digital agency We were forced to surrender our value in exchange for distribution

We believe a brighter future is possible, where people, creators, and builders maintain ownership over the value they generate digitally Web3 enables this alternative future through composable building blocks that unlock limitless possibilities for networks owned by the community that builds them Yet we have work to do to discover the full potential of this novel technology, and to ensure that we don’t inadvertently recreate the wrongs of web2

The success of web3 projects will be measured by the depth of their community – which is why robust community is a critical component of the Seed Club flywheel

Community is how we cultivate trust within a trustless system, and it’s how project teams persist through any market condition
