READ WRITE OWN - CHRIS DIXON GEBUNDEN

The Internet of today is a far cry from its early promise of a decentralized  democratic
network of creativity and innovation. In the past decade  the Internet has fallen under the
control of a tiny group of massive companies like Apple  Google  and Facebook. In Read Write
Own  tech visionary Chris Dixon argues that the dream of an open network for fostering
creativity and entrepreneurship doesn't have to die  and that in fact it can  and must  be
saved with blockchain networks  which he vitally separates from the currency-based speculation
that it is unfortunately lumped together with - a distinction he calls The Computer vs The
Casino. With lucid and compelling prose - and drawing from his first-hand observations  mental
models  and experiences over a 25-year career in the Internet industry - Dixon shows how the
Internet has undergone three distinct eras  bringing us to the critical moment we're in today.
The first act was the read era  lasting from 1990 to 2005  in which early Internet networks
democratized information. In the read-write era  2006-2020  corporate networks democratized
publishing. And we are now entering the read-write-own era  sometimes called web3  in which
blockchain networks have begun to democratize ownership  granting power and economic benefits
to the participants in the network--not just to massive corporations--
