Crypto Altruism Podcast Episode 60 - CG Pantheon - NFTs, education, and community empowerment
For episode 60, we have the privilege of welcoming Lindsay Rosenthal from CG Pantheon, an NFT collection and curated community of thought leaders from web3, finance, and fintech. We discuss how they are using NFTs and web3 to help increase financial wisdom, how they are building a community hub for networking, built around their network-to-earn model, how they are using NFTs to support girls education around the world, and much more.
Lindsay is the CEO and Founder of CG Pantheon, the host of the Undressing Finance podcast, which aims to bring digestible financial information to listeners, and is a University student and athlete.
Three Key Takeaways
Web3 is driven by community, but networking in web3 can be “clunky”. An organized platform for community building and networking can help make it easier for those in web3 to connect and build together.
Everyone is new in web3 – very few are truly “experts”, and everyone is constantly learning and growing. If you are looking to break into web3, come in with an open mind and be ready to learn and absorb as much as possible.
Web3 needs a better, more seamless user experience, to ensure the space can be as accessible for everyone as possible.
