Welcome to Web 3 with A6 and Z, a show about building the next generation of the Internet

from the team at A6 and Z crypto.

This show is for anyone, whether developer, artist, community leader,

startup, entrepreneur, other builder, policy makers, anyone seeking to understand and go deeper

on all things crypto and web 3 towards a decentralized community-owned and

creator-owned internet. This week's episode is a quick overview of principles for

thinking about policy, briefly covering topics and recent moves that are top of mind in US

crypto regulation. It is based on a live conversation that took place a couple of

weeks ago on Twitter with Congressman Jake Auchincloss of Massachusetts, also vice chair of the Financial Services Committee.

He also formerly led product development at both a Fortune 100 insurance company and a cyber security startup. We also have Miles Jennings, General Counsel, and Head of Decentralization

at A6 and Z-Crypto, who has advanced and published several legal frameworks for both

builders and industry on topics such as Dowows and more. You can find those on our

website. And finally the conversation is moderated by A6 and C

C crypto founding general partner Chris Dixon. He's the first voice you'll hear

followed by the

Congressman and then Miles. As a reminder, none of the following is

investment business tax or legal advice. Please see a six and z

So I'll just do briefly a little overview. I think I won't I won't belabor too much since we've got we're sort of short on time but but you know our view at A16Z is that

Web3 is a major new computing movement that has a potential to unlock a whole new wave of innovation.

And specifically, blockchains is enabling tokens and which allow for sort of new kinds of ownership, allow for new kinds of networks to be created that are owned and operated by communities instead of by companies.

There are lots of different use cases.
