Can web3 have an impact on the physical world or is it just crypto bullsh*t? In this episode we talk to Nik Hawks and Max Gold from Full Savage podcast about Web3 in the physical world. They explain WTF #DEPIN, #TIPIN, #DeWI, #PoPW, #Meatspace and all the decentralized "physical" acronyms mean. We dive into centralized vs decentralized and when they might be needed. We touch on the history of Decentralized Wireless Networks which was kicked off by Helium. We go on to debate about Uber and if it could exists as a pure Web3 project.
