on YouTube ↗20m

" summary

Announcement describes a concrete stack called Web5 combining decentralized identity, user-controlled data stores, and payments rails; it pairs a TBDex protocol for competitive on‑ramps/off‑ramps with self‑sovereign identity where users grant and revoke access to their own data. Infrastructure is Bitcoin‑anchored, early SDKs and APIs are already released, the website is live, and integration deals with Fortune 500 firms are underway under NDA after about six months of focused work.
