We should be generating websites from NFT contracts. All of the functionality is at the contract level—so generate the UI from it. The UI can be generated based on the functions available, themes and info built into it as well. Set up an ENS domain and now we’re at web3.

A simple way to think about web3: No one company or person should have unilateral control over our social and financial infrastructure on the internet. Crypto provides a viable technical path to actually achieve that in practice.

Zora is now multichain. We've spent a lot of energy designing and engineering an experience such that minting feels exactly the same across all Ethereum, Zora & Optimism. NFTs across all networks look the same, with no different subdomains required. It feels magic.
