Status, NFTs, empowerment, web3 adoption | Simona Pop
Simona Pop (https://twitter.com/Sim_Pop) works in Community strategy for Status (https://status.im/), a product which aspires to be a next generation social app and crypto wallet all at once, emphasising privacy.
She is a major contributor in Ethereum ecosystem development, education and developer resources, working with ETH Global and leading programming for events such as ETHDenver and DevCon.
Empowerment is a consistent theme in her work. Providing access and opportunity for people. Looking beyond the niche community that much of web3 and DeFi exists in as of 2021.
This focus was well aligned in Simona's previous role as co-founder of the Bounties Network, allowing people to earn crypto by completing tasks, a protocol that has since been built upon further by Gitcoin. Bringing all kinds of funding to early stage builders in open technology.
In this conversation we explore how the industry can encourage adoption and grow the DeFi space to become ever more inclusive, lowering barriers of entry. We also delve into all the exciting things happening in the burgeoning NFT space.
