I think you are misunderstanding something above. I'm not the one providing HN membership. That would be YC but I as a third party can verify whether someone has a valid HN membership and provide them perks based on their membership. T

Here's the thing though. Let's say, I want to provide special benefit to people who own membership on hackernews. In the model where this data is public, I can query the wallet of people to check for HN nft and provide special dis

A few web3 projects I think provide value. 1. Handshake This is decentralized root naming system. This is one of the most practical use of a blockchain where all records need to be public and verifiable. No need to depend on icann and regis
