Today at the Blockchain Lab @ NYU, we got an exclusive look at Rodeo, the new social platform from the team behind Foundation. Unlike traditional social networks, Rodeo puts creators first, letting fans mint and collect posts—turning engagement into real support. Kayvon Tehranian (CEO & Co-founder) led an inspiring Zoom session, sharing the journey from Foundation’s NFT marketplace to Rodeo and how blockchain is transforming the creator-fan relationship. Meanwhile, Matthew Vernon (Chief Design Officer & Co-founder), Benjamin Ernest Abraham (Trust & Safety Lead), Junnie Kwon (Senior Marketing Manager), and Connor Barnett (Product Lead) were there in person, helping students onboard to the platform, answering questions, and guiding them through the process. We had the amazing opportunity to network with industry leaders and enjoy some amazing merch ranging from bucket hats to cool stickers, in the spirit of art! A big thanks to Danielle Skinner (People Lead) for helping us coordinate this and to everyone who participated in making this event a success. The future of Web3 for creators is here, and we can’t wait to see where it goes next! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And for more updates, don't forget to follow us!
