As the transition from online to onchain continues to unfold, communities deserve true ownership and influence over their digital spaces.

Arriving here hinges on moving beyond the shift from online to onchain communities, and towards the concept of onchain towns.

Onchain towns represent the next evolution of internet communities. and move beyond the notion of online communities just being oriented around digital assets.

Until now, a community built around an NFT that’s organized and runs on Discord might—in some sense—be decentralized, but it falls far short of what’s possible.

When communities own their digital spaces, they can realize their full potential. They can build unique experiences, reward members for contributions, and establish support models that previously weren’t possible.

As we look to the future, onchain towns hold promise to reshape the landscape of the internet. They’re a new model for online communities, one that is more democratic, more composable, and more secure.
