Diana Chen is the founder and host of Rehash, a web3 podcast and media production DAO. After ragequitting her job as a lawyer, she spent a few years travel-blogging full time and encountered the many struggles of the web2 creator economy. This eventually led her into a role at a content marketing agency where she met the founder of Unstoppable Domains, got interested in web3, and made the jump. 

During our conversation, Diana recounts her early days working in the web3 space as a total noob. With no choice but to learn as she went, she embraced the process of learning in public and found that making her journey public was equally valuable for other newcomers. She touches on 

Turning to her current project, Rehash, we discuss the novel governance system used by the DAO to curate the podcast itself, as well as Rehash’s bigger vision. With the goals of creating a web3 media incubator and network of web3-native content creators, Rehash has quite the roadmap.

We also dive into on-chain contributions, how governance is evolving, and how all of this folds into the budding web3 creator economy.
