Frankly, I don't care if web3 is spring, winter, summer, fall, or whatever.
It has been a while since I wrote about my own view of web3.
Good morning.
This is mitsui from web3researcher.
Today will be my first blog post in a while on how I view my own web3. I also wrote about my progress and future plans regarding the newsletter, so you may not learn anything in particular, but if you like, please read to the end.
😍Thank you and update on the newsletter
We recently conducted a survey for our paid subscribers. Thank you so much to those who responded to the survey and to those who were able to speak with us one-on-one via Zoom. It was very helpful.
It is difficult to describe, but without choosing words, this newsletter is 100% based on my interests. I research what interests me at any given time and write articles about it. On the other hand, I feel that I have to be conscious of the overlap between my own interests and what subscribers are looking for in order to create content for a certain number of people who subscribe to the newsletter for a fee.
However, I am interested in the web3 as a whole, so it is not that difficult, but I felt that the newsletter could be brushed up by regularly listening to the feedback of subscribers regarding how to present, write, and update content. Thank you very much!
We have been spending more time on each of our recent newsletters, and have been increasing the number of market report articles and in-depth discussion articles. We also try to make our articles as easy to understand as possible by inserting simple illustrations in the articles.
There will be more changes in the future as we explore various options, but we somehow envision the following form of update.
Saturday and Sunday: Trends and news tracking
Saturday: Market, news, and trend summary articles
Sunday: Summary article on fundraising projects
Mon-Fri: Market reports, in-depth project reports, in-depth articles
Market reports are popular, but so are articles that delve into specific projects, so we will update both. We hope that you will continue to visit our website and read only what you are interested in.
Oh, one more thing.
Connected to what you surveyed me about, I am also in the process of thinking a lot about the concept of this newsletter and the essential value it provides. As we expand and grow it globally, I wonder what kind of position we should expand in the way we present it.
(This article is written as it comes to me, without a clean copy, so the text jumps from place to place. (This article is written as it comes to me, so it jumps from place to place. Sorry.)
This is also the current situation, but after much thought, I am wondering if "Learn web3" would be the simplest option.
This is a newsletter for "learning web3", keeping up with trends, news, use cases, and providing unique insights. 5 minutes a day, updated daily, we hope that if you keep reading, you will gradually learn more about web3.
However, it may change. Also, I am studying the meaning of the concept from a business point of view and what kind of words should be used, so warding is also something to consider.
At the end of this newsletter-related status report, let me thank you again for your support. web3 Research JAPAN" was ranked 4th in Japan in the recently implemented country-specific popularity newsletter on Substack!
I don't know what kind of evaluation it is, but I am grateful for the recognition. I don't have a specific ranking goal in mind, and I will continue to create good content every day, but it is still nice to receive a third-party evaluation.
Thanks to all of our subscribers, and thank you for your continued support. We will continue to do our best.
🙂 Honestly, I don't care if web3 is spring, winter, summer, fall, whatever.
Now, let's get to the content of the title. However, this will be another blog post to sort out my own recent feelings.
Web3 has been hot lately.
Spring has sprung again.
I hear these words a lot these days, and I talk about them too. But to be honest, I like web3 in any season.
Of course, I am more than happy to spring for the premise and dance when summer arrives. I need to grow as a market to make money. I also need to make a living, and if I have a bigger budget, I can spend more time on research for each film, and I can spend more money on on-site interviews, for example.
So I am not trying to say that the season is irrelevant. Spring is the best! Come summer!
On the other hand, I don't know of any other area other than web3 that is interesting to me because I discover something new every day, even though I am doing research like crazy every day. Of course, this is also my value system. It is up to each person what stimulates him or her.
I think I have a higher level of intellectual curiosity than other people, so I really fit the description of a researcher. I am very interested in exploring what web3 is, what is the definition of web3 as a discipline, what is happening, what impact it has on human history, what are the factors for success, what are the factors for failure, what are the possibilities, and how it will change people's lives. What are the factors for success, what are the factors for failure, what are the possibilities, and how will it change people's lives?
To that end, we are currently doing this daily in the newsletter, but as this grows, we will use the budget and influence to build our own product and conduct demonstration tests. I will describe everything from the tentative settings for building the product to the behind-the-scenes of the demonstration tests in the newsletter, and make it one of the contents of web3's explorations.
I would like to research from a business perspective rather than from a scholarly laboratory. I want to take a behavioral economics approach rather than economics, and I want to search for the right answer on the ground rather than the right answer in theory. I wrote an article exploring the phenomenon of meme coins most recently, and I would like to develop my own hypothesis like that, and when I gain a little more influence, I will also conduct empirical experiments based on that hypothesis to try to put it out into the world.
To this end, I research use cases and trends every day, brushing up my own hypothesis daily by investigating individual, specific events and considering insights.
❓"No, what are you talking about?"
Yes, I keep writing about my values.
I was often asked in surveys and direct conversations about my own values and background, such as "Why do you do research? I thought that writing about my own values and background from time to time might change the way people read the newsletter, so I decided to write this.
To be honest, the value of content is "who says it".
Content = Who says what?" I think the "Who" in the former is about 80%, and the "What" is about 20%.
↓ Here is a great book that describes the area. It described why Aspie people like me can't work in society.
And while "who says it" depends largely on their track record, I thought that knowing some of their values and background might change the way you view their content, so I wrote this article.
I will usually continue to update research articles as before, but I will also write a blog like this one once every 1~2 months to report on the tensions in the newsletter and my own values. I would be happy if you could take a look at it in your spare time.
🗣Finally.
We received some very gratifying feedback from those who responded to our survey, and we would like to share some of it with you (we apologize for not introducing all of it)! We are reviewing all of the responses as well as the feedback for reference and encouragement!)
I am learning a lot from your very detailed and easy to understand explanations. I am looking forward to more of your work in the future.
The friendly language is easy to read. The book is comfortable to read with a sense of stability, not being affected by immediate gains or losses. The long-term perspective and insights are beneficial.
Since I am usually busy with work, I appreciate being able to catch up here.
I have been a subscriber since the early days of my current job. It has been helpful to me as a beginner starting out and also when I gradually progress in my studies and want to stay up-to-date.
I read the report while examining it because it is well written and delivered with your own insights, and it is a great source of mental exercise.
I think it is great that you are putting out content almost daily. Please keep up the good work.
I look forward to reading your newsletter every morning.
I am amazed at the frequency with which the articles are updated, and I don't think there is any other media that provides so much information in Japanese. The articles are very informative and I always enjoy reading them. I took the plunge and subscribed for a year, and I am glad I did.
Thank you for your daily work. I have not been able to read all of it, but there is a lot I don't know and I find it very informative and readable. Thank you very much.
I read with great interest the wide range of information, many of which I have never heard before in this news.
Thank you very much for all your help. I have to admit that web3 is very difficult and I am not able to keep up with it, but thanks to mitsui, I am able to understand the web3 area, even if only somewhat. I think it is valuable for me to be able to understand even a little bit about web3, so please keep up the good work.
Thank you !!!!!!!
