The Future of Social Media with Suji Yan (Mask Network)

August 19, 2024 The Blockchain Socialist

For this episode I spoke to Suji Yan, CEO and founder of Mask Network. Mask's main product is an open-sourced browser extension that wraps around several web2 and web3 social media networks. Rather than starting a new social media platform, the extension brings the benefits of both kinds of social media.

During the discussion we spoke about Suji's journey from journalist to founder, non-financial uses of crypto, and how Mask is allocating capital to support a decentralized web.
