Permaweb Pioneers

Social tools on the Permaweb with Metaweave Co-founders Cromatikap and Falco

Episode Summary

Considering the fact that so much mental energy is put into social networks online, it's important that we have the ability to save what we want for future generations. Metaweave has created their own social platform, in addition to tools that make it very easy to store social content on the Permaweb.

Episode Notes

To paraphrase one of the Co-founders of Metaweave, if you're thinking of making something then "it must be built". These thoughts among many factors led Cromatikap to the Open Web Foundry (visit forward.arweave.dev) to go and build social utilities specifically designed for the Permaweb. 

The journey has not be straightforward, especially the formation of their legal entity which is now based in Portugal, also known as "Silicoin Valley" or the "Silicon Valley of Europe". Like many founders, it can be overwhelming to start a new company, manage legal needs, and sort out investments. They've adapted and now have operations up and running, becoming defacto "Arweave Ambassadors" as they connect with all of the web3 builders in Portugal. 

In our conversation, we discuss the Account Protocol, Permatweet,and the Twitter Bridge. These tools make it easy to both explore the dApps on the Permaweb as well as connect web2 platforms with web3.
