In this episode of Exploring Solana with Jupiter, Harry Zhang talks about the Project Galaxy and how it makes the whole content economy fairer for content creators. Together with your host, Ben Chow, listen and learn how Web3 technology and the infrastructure with blockchain finally find a way to build this permissionless, open, and collaborative network to store the users’ data.

Definition of terms:

• Cryptocurrency - an encrypted data string that denotes a unit of currency
• Solana - fastest blockchain in the world and the fastest growing ecosystem in crypto, with thousands of projects spanning DeFi, NFTs, Web3 and more
• Jupiter - ​​is the key swap aggregator and infrastructure on Solana, giving you the best price swaps for any token.
• NFT - are unique cryptographic tokens that exist on a blockchain and cannot be replicated; can represent real-world items like artwork and real estate.
• Project Galaxy - the largest Web3 credential data network in the world. Built on open and collaborative infrastructure, Project Galaxy helps Web3 developers and projects leverage credential data to build better products and communities. 
• DLive - the largest live streaming community on the blockchain. 
• The Bear Market - is a collection of 10000 programmatically, randomly-generated NFT bears on the Zilliqa blockchain. 
• Web3 technology- Web3 and cryptocurrencies run on what are called “permissionless” blockchains, which have no centralized control and don't require users to trust — or even know anything about — other users to do business with them. 
• Ethereum - the community-run technology powering the cryptocurrency ether (ETH) and thousands of decentralized applications. 
• OG  - slang for a founder of any early crypto blockchain such as Vitalik Buterin, who invented Ethereum. A crypto OG can also refer to an early investor in Bitcoin or Ethereum. 
• AMA - used by people who are opening themselves up for a session where the community can ask any kind of question. Many NFT projects hold live AMA sections regularly to keep up the engagement with their NFT holders.
• LPT - an Ethereum token that powers the Livepeer network, a platform for decentralized video streaming.
• Whales - individuals or institutions that hold large amounts of coins of a certain cryptocurrency.
