Nader Al-Naji will speak at Mainnet in New York on September 23rd, 2022, at 3:25 pm EST.  

Some of the core team will accompany him, and DeSo will have a booth at the event.

The Messari team described this spot as prime real estate considering the other speakers that day.

Mainnet is one of the biggest crypto conferences organized by one of the industry's most respected data and research firms.

Just recently, Messari released a report grading the biggest trends in crypto. 

The trends they analyzed:

• zk-rollups
• Web3 gaming
• Upstart layer-1
• Decentralized Social
• Web3 infrastructure
• Revenge of the apps

Can you guess which was the biggest opportunity? 

Decentralized Social scored a 4/5, which was the highest grade mostly because of the total addressable market of Web2 social media. 

Social media today is currently bringing in $220 billion in advertising revenue. 

According to Business Wire, that number is expected to reach $1 trillion by 2027.

 DeSo is uniquely positioned to capture a big chunk of that value over the next several years.
