Web3 Data Ownership: A New Economic Model Emerges
A significant shift is occurring in how user data is valued and compensated in Web3. CARV's Chief Business Officer @DelioPaul articulates a revolutionary approach where users receive direct compensation for their data contributions. Key points: - Projects purchasing user data must share revenue directly with users - Privacy protection aligns with economic fairness - Decentralized ownership provides tangible utility This marks a departure from Web2's zero-compensation model, establishing a new paradigm where users maintain ownership and receive fair value for their data contributions. *The future of data ownership is being rewritten, with users at the center of the economic equation.*
