High streaming community. You've probably heard me talk about gateway businesses in recent weeks and months and why we think that's super important to realize all the benefits of decentralized Web 3 protocols and networks, streamer in particular. So how do we define a gateway business? Simply put, it's an application layer business on top of the protocol that distract abstracts away the difficulties of working with, say, smart contracts and highly volatile crypto. Tokens. And normalises the customer experience by building a model around a more traditional business such as the SAS in the in the case of subcast which is streamers first gateway business coming to market soon. Why? Why are we really sort of driving this? Obviously, we're very focused on protocol adoption now, but we've seen other Web 3 protocols build multiple gateway businesses and support gateway businesses on top of their networks, and it's a great way to democratize access to the technology. And so, you know, we're putting a call out to any builders, entrepreneurs, anyone in the real time data sharing space, whether that be media distribution or other use cases to come and talk to me, reach out to me. And we really want to support from the streamer side of things. And yeah, we're here to help. Gentle reminder as well, I posted about this couple of days ago, but I'm actually pitching streamers first Gateway business Subcast, which is about peer-to-peer video and audio streaming. In Lisbon, a live event 99 second pitch on the 12th of September. If you'd like to come and hear me pitch subpar talk about subcast and how we're revolutionising real time video streaming.
