About The Video -
As the entire world is shifting on the internet slowly (or rapidly?) and this virtual habitat is becoming a new normal, protecting our digital identities has become more critical than ever.
We're slowly realizing that almost everything on the internet is hacked!
The profiles that you create, the websites that you visit, the credit cards that you use, the pictures that you post, the messages that you send - everything is DATA, and DATA is being traded.
In web2, you don't truly own your identity. The platforms do.
And, you're always vulnerable to your data getting sold, your privacy getting invaded, etc.
So what's the way out to 'truly' own & secure your identity in this virtual space?
Web2 didn't have the answer. Web3 has!
With web3, owning your identity is very much possible.
That's what Unstoppable Domains is doing for the users.
In this video podcast, Bimlesh Gundurao (Co-Founder, Foundership) catches up with Nilkanth Iyer (Head of Asia, Unstoppable Domains) and dives deep into conversation about privacy, security, and owning your digital identity in web3.
If you're stepping into the web3 space or have started using dApps & web3 products, you shouldn't miss this conversation.

We all love watching movies. Be it in cinemas or on OTT platforms.
In India, almost 2000 films get made in around 20 languages every year, but not all make it to the big screens or the OTTs.
The reason? The complex process of film ownership & distribution.
But Senthil Nayagam steps in with NFTs as a solution for filmmakers, distributors & presenters and tries to make this process as simple as a breeze.
In this episode of Web3Verse - Senthil Nayagam, Founder of Oracle Movies, a first ever Film NFT marketplace, sheds some light on how the film business works and how his Web3 startup is making life easy for the film creators & business owners.
He also shows - how if founders adapt to this new technology, can open up unimaginable opportunities in the business world.
If you are a movie lover & also a Web 3.0 enthusiast, this episode will help you understand the possibilities web3 entrepreneurship can open.

There is still a lot of confusion about how things in Web 3.0 function and how Entrepreneurs can make use of it to bring change in the real world.
When we say - NFTs, Cryptos and DeFi, there is a general impression that these instruments must be significant only in the virtual world.
But Prabir Mishra in this episode of Web3Verse erases this notion and throws light on how the blockchain technology is not limited to the digital application, but can be very much used to solve the real world problems.
Prabir Mishra is the Co-founder and CEO of TRST101, a multi-chain blockchain platform that provides blockchain solutions on Agri & Food Traceability, Connected Supply Chain, Document Identity and Authentication.

Do you want to learn to visualize situations of strategic importance in order to create clarity, invite critique, and inspire action?
Well, Wardley Mapping is all about just that! In practice, it’s all about developing strategic competence through situational awareness in order to secure asymmetric advantage.
By pairing it with systems thinking, you expand the range of choices available for solving a problem by broadening your thinking and help yourself articulate problems in new and different ways.
The principles of systems thinking make you aware that there are no perfect solutions & the choices you make will have an impact on other parts of the system.
By anticipating the impact of each trade-off, you can minimize its severity or even use it to your own advantage.
Wardley Mapping & Systems Thinking, therefore, allows you to bring in clarity & make informed choices.
In this podcast, Santosh Panda (Co-founder, Foundership) joins hands with Saurabh Kabra (Founder, Angel Investor) to shed some light on it & Saurabh goes ahead to explain a practical in-depth view of Wardley Mapping & Systems Thinking for Startups & their Founders.
