The Attention Economy & new forms of organisations on the internet.

Towards decentralisation in BAT ecosystem

After all of the hype over crypto and blockchain over the past few years, the questions that seems to arise most often is “who’s actually using and how useful is this stuff”.

One project that did launch amongst some fanfare during the fabled ICO bubble was Brave Browser. Founded by Brendan Eich of Mozilla fame, their goal was do develop a new web browser with crypto at its heart and, more importantly, start to delve into the Attention Economy where users and advertisers or content producers would start to interact directly between each other. Content consumers would, rather than the likes of Google, be directly rewarded for sparing some of their attention. Attention as a marketable commodity.

With over 8 million active monthly users, Brave is rapidly gaining popularity. It could, in fact, be the most widely-used product in the crypto sphere.

It gives us great pleasure, therefore, to welcome Ben Livshits, Brave’s Chief Scientist.

His talk will cover some recent strides with the Brave browser and its native Basic Attention Token (BAT) which is used as part of their novel advertising ecosystem.

Ben will cover some of the recent developments, both technical and strategic.

Colony – Organisations for the Internet

A colony is a new kind of internet-native digital company where rules are enforced by software instead of hierarchy. The Colony Network is a suite of smart contracts, running on Ethereum. It provides a general purpose framework for the essential functions organisations require, such as ownership, structure, authority, and financial management.

We welcome back Jack du Rose, founder & CEO at Colony. Before falling down a Bitcoin mine in 2012, Jack was a creative technologist in the jewellery industry, pioneering advanced 3D printing techniques to create ultra high end baubles like Damien Hirst’s $100m diamond skull.

Jack will be giving an overview of the Colony protocol as well as a discussion of the nature of the firm, the future of work, and the changing relationships between the firm and the workforce.
