Building an Open, User-Owned Web Together

Our mission is clear: to create a web that is owned and shaped by its users. If we don't take the lead, others will shape it for us.

Operated under the Lume Web project, web3.news exists for the community's benefit and is developed under the MIT license. We’re committed to transparency and open collaboration.

At web3.news, we are dedicated to building technology, fostering community, and providing education. Our vision is powered by your participation and support.

Currently, web3.news operates thanks to your generous donations and grant funding, at this time primarily from the Sia Foundation, a 501c3 blockchain foundation focused on decentralized storage. This significant support aligns closely with our mission of building an open and decentralized web. These contributions are vital for our ongoing operations and development, ensuring web3.news remains a vibrant and valuable resource for everyone, and paving the way for our future growth and sustainability.

The support from the Sia Foundation not only bolsters our present efforts but also aligns with our vision of leveraging blockchain technology for decentralized information sharing and storage.

Looking to the future, the Lume Web project is set to introduce separate, community-supported paid products. This strategic move aims to ensure the long-term sustainability of web3.news and the ongoing development of innovative solutions. Aligned with our core values and community focus, these products are envisioned as providing essential services and value back to the community, shaped in part by your feedback and participation.

We pledge to maintain web3.news as a platform free from sponsorships and advertising, focusing on solving problems through collaboration and innovation.

Join us in shaping the future of Web3.
