Rehash: A Web3 Podcast

S9 E2 | A New Era of Media Without Algorithms or Ads w/Grace Guan (Unlonely)


Listen Later

In this episode, we’re speaking with Grace Guan, co-founder of Unlonely, a web3 livestreaming platform, about web2 vs web3 media, inner workings of YouTube algorithms, and how traditional media platforms can stop exploiting creators by getting rid of ads and algorithms in this new iteration of media we’re building in web3.

Grace and her brother, Brian, co-founded Unlonely together and have been doing a phenomenal job of onboarding creators to the platform. Grace shares some stats on their user base and viewership in this episode as well as what she thinks people working on consumer crypto apps need to do differently in order to get more users onto their platforms. 

If you’re a creator or anyone working adjacent to web3 media, you won’t want to miss this episode with Grace.

Grace was nominated by Winny and voted onto the podcast by Winny, Triumph, Maz, Andy Boyan, Birb, David Phelps, Lucas, Ernest Kou, and myself, Diana Chen.
