儘管我對金融法規（包括加密產業合規化）沒有特別的興趣，但因為對於資訊法、Web3、區塊鏈或Crypto Law有研究的興趣，始終還是會被一波波浪潮推向FinTech（金融科技）、RegTech（監管科技）或加密資產相關領域或論壇，如同AI的影響，它會滲透到每個領域與層面，最後沒有人會是局外人，因為這世界早已是虛實與科際整合的年代。 然而真實世界的各國政府或區域經濟體加強虛擬資產的監管力道，但能否對Web3世界（去中心化金融, DeFi）有所規範？或讓Web3也被收編到真實世界、同步接軌或做到法規調適與融合？都有待觀察。Web3最有可能的結果，落地（境內）且中心化的歸當地政府監管，那離岸（境外）線上且中心化的，或離地的（去中心化）仍在鏈上抗審查，狂放不羈、自在逍遙。 文章連結： https://vocus.cc/article/640383d6fd89780001e4cfae

I'm recommitting myself to the term content entrepreneur. It's meaningful. It's your badge of honor. It's a special kind of entrepreneur.

If you're down and broken and don't see the path forward with your content business, this is the episode for you.

First, excited to announce our new event - CEX: Creator Economy Expo - at the Arizona Grand Resort in Phoenix, May 2-4, 2022.

In addition, we launched our NFT program, CEX Never-Ending Tickets.

This week I discuss to issues I'm been working through. First is the problem with the large increase in teenage suicide. Sort of an evil cocktail of social media plus COVID-19.

Second, I talk about what we can do to stop dementia.

Both issues are related to screen time. Now is the time we can all take control of this very important issue.

Links for this issues include:

Suicide rates jump in teenage girls and the Prof G podcast with Dr. Sanjay Gupta.
