Mingo: Bringing Web3 and NFTs to the Masses on Hedera

Blockchains are proliferating across enterprises and taking on new business use cases at a rapid pace. But even with a wave of mass acceptance, the persisting problem with blockchain technology are the barriers to entry, particularly in understanding its utilities.  As a digital ledger system, which simultaneously boasts transparency and encryption, blockchain is a powerful tool to grow secure digital platforms. In real-world applications of distributed ledger technology, Hedera has become a leading example for hashgraph security, even amongst big tech giants such as IBM, Microsoft, and Oracle. But despite this uptick in blockchain usage by big brands, there are still ordinary people who are left behind. So how do you bring those out of the loop back into the future of digital networks?

On this episode of Gossip About Gossip, host Zenobia Godschalk chats with Joe Arthur, the CEO of Mingo, to discuss the various real-world applications of the Hedera network as reflected in Mingo’s interconnected digital platform. Godschalk and Arthur talk through…

  • How to simplify the digital process for onboarding the average person
  • How influencer advertisements have helped boost image prior to market launch
  • What improvements can be made to platforms during the current ‘crypto winter’

“…Web3 and the Metaverse is an absolutely monstrous space, and as the average people could begin to get more comfortable and more confident in entering this space, that’s where the future is and what we’re trying to do is make it simpler for them,” explained Arthur.

Arthur is an experienced Chief Executive Officer whose background is in online media platforms, having co-founded the Mingo network in 2015. Mingo consists of a full-ecosystem of digital networks, dApps, including MingoChat, MingoMarket, MingoPlay, MingoLaunch, and MingoWallet, all of which function within the Hedera network.
