Colors of Tech & Entrepreneurship

In this exciting first episode of *Colors of Web3 & Entrepreneurship* , we deep dive into the vibrant world of Web3 and the innovative ecosystem of decentralized naming services. Our first guest is Aki Tarumi, the Chief Technology Officer of mycel.domains.

Mycel is a trailblazing Decentralized Name Service Infrastructure built on Layer 1 blockchain technology. It has the remarkable ability to resolve not just website addresses but also wallets, IPFS resources, and a wide array of addresses across multiple chains. Join us as we explore how mycel supports name resolution in DNS, IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication), and smart contracts on various blockchain networks.

During our conversation, we'll uncover the diverse use cases that mycel addresses. Learn how mycel enables individuals and organizations to associate multiple addresses with a single, user-friendly name, offering an unprecedented level of convenience in the Web3 landscape.
