TL;DR
Full Story
Remember yesterday when we got all giddy about Web2 companies partnering with crypto projects once again?
Well, when it rains, it pours…
ByteDance, TikTok’s parent company just announced a move into Web3!
According to CoinTelegraph:
“In a statement on April 17, BytePlus [the enterprise technology arm of ByteDance] explained how it plans to use its existing knowledge and experience in artificial intelligence (AI) and data warehousing to empower the Sui ecosystem, with a particular focus on Web3 gaming and SocialFi projects.”
…cool. What the hell does that all mean?
It’s vague, but here’s how we’re reading it — if you want to:
A) Store your game or social platform’s data somewhere.
And/or…
B) Use ByteDance’s AI to enhance the player/user experience
All while paying for these services instantly via the blockchain…
Now you can! All via the Sui network.
Another sign of good health for the crypto space 🙂
