Title:

The essence of community building in the metaverse

Description:

The gaming ecosystem is set to become more community-driven with the help of decentralized tech, empowering creators and coders. The paradigm has changed. We moved from a « corporation first » to « community first » way.

The community forms around an idea or interest through engagement and collaboration with the community, and concepts emerge out of the community. It’s « community first » and more than even a community-driven approach. These communities are decentralized and community-governed designs can be put to vote, and the artwork with the highest number of votes from the community can ultimately get accepted for the final design. Every time someone mints an NFT, the artists who worked on the asset earn royalties from it for each transaction. This will open up unexplored terrains of monetizing creative knowledge and skills.

Why is the community so important? Amelie Ebongué will explain to you the fundamentals and the essence of building a community. Everyone who ignores community in the age of social media which is everyone who thinks brand-first instead of audience-first will struggle the most with anything Web 3.0-related.

You can’t crack the metaverse (or whatever you call it) when you don’t even understand the very basic principle of social media.
