Decentralizing the Internet: How Wayru is Bringing People Together with Blockchain
In 2011 the UN released a report declaring the internet a Human Right, but over a decade later millions of people in developing countries still lack the necessary means for a simple WiFi connection, many of which reside in Latin America. This is due to industry control by a few large Internet service providers (IPSs), with a preference to upsell to their established customer base, rather than expanding to untapped regions in which millions of people are in dire need of connectivity.
A Question of Human RightsThese companies fail to prioritize sufficient connection quality & network coverage to developing nations, with an approach that has led to 37% of the world’s population currently living without the internet. This gap in the market has attracted the attention of a new web3 telecommunications innovator named Wayru, who is spearheading tech advancements that could provide a decentralized solution to a centralized problem.
What was born as an idea to help connect the people of less developed countries may end up being one of the most savvy business ideas of 2022. The market size for the Global Internet Service Providers industry recently surpassed an eye-watering figure of 1 Trillion USD, with demand only set to increase.

PlayMining: Doing Social Good With Casual Gaming
Web3 games are poised to take over the casual mobile gaming market. With hyper-casual games accounting for nearly 60% of all mobile game downloads in 2021, according to a 2022 report by data.ai, casual gamers represent a clear majority of the US$138 billion global mobile gaming market. Add in Web3 gaming’s Play-and-Earn (P&E) incentives, and it’s a no-brainer — casual mobile GameFi is likely to be one of the hottest growing trends in the entire gaming industry.
But Web3 technology has other implications too — especially its ability to enable social impact much more easily than Web2 counterparts. So why not marry the two paradigms, and make casual games focused on creating social good?

Battle of the Utility Coins During Summer Bull Run: HedgeUp, SOL, ETH
Crypto enthusiasts are spoiled for choices this year. As summer heats up, millions of adherents are trying to decide which tokens will give them the best returns. Some will go with established blockchains, some will choose the frivolity of meme coins, and some will pick a newcomer with the potential to go to the moon.
While meme coins can make you look like a crazy genius when you pick the right one, typically, they don’t pan out. A project with plenty of utility behind it offers more than just a token. Those projects are pushing the Web3 space forward in addition to profits that might be had from trading the coin.

The BTC Whitepaper is Apparently Available on Every Mac Computer
Andy Baio – the former CTO of Kickstarter – has discovered something unusual about Apple’s Mac computers. They all seem to come with copies of the bitcoin whitepaper.
The Whitepaper for Bitcoin is a Regular Mac ResidentThe whitepaper for bitcoin was first introduced on Halloween of 2008. During that time, major countries like the U.S. and much of Europe were entering the early stages of the Great Recession that would last through the next few years, and bitcoin was introduced as a tool that could potentially aid those who were in need.
Banks were closing left and right (boy, doesn’t that feel familiar right about now), and bitcoin would be a universal money and investment protocol that could aid those who were deeply affected by what was going on. The situation led to several bankruptcies, foreclosures, and a stock market that would crash and not even begin to witness any form of recovery until 2014 (six years later). It was a sad and ugly moment in the history of the world.

Bitstamp is Paving the Way for Crypto Payments
Crypto exchange Bitstamp has formed a new partnership with Qi Digital to ensure that all companies, banks, and payment providers that work with it can accept crypto as a method of payment.
Bitstamp is Making It Easy to Pay with CryptoThe move is pushing the goals of bitcoin and its digital counterparts closer to being achieved. What many people likely forget is that while bitcoin and many of its crypto cousins have taken on either speculative or even hedge-like statuses in recent years, many of them were initially designed to serve as payment tools. They were built to push checks, credit cards, and fiat currencies to the side, but this has been a relatively slow journey given the volatility that continues to drag them down.
It is extremely hard to understand when bitcoin and its crypto family will go up or down when it comes to their prices. Many stores and companies have been reluctant to say “yes” when it comes to accepting crypto payments for this reason, and to a degree, we can’t blame them.
