YouTube Hires Neal Mohan As CEO

YouTube’s new CEO Neal Mohan thinks that NFTs and Web 3 can be important instruments in generating additional revenue for creators.  He took over the reins after Susan Wojcicki departed from the company this week. However, she would remain an advisor to Google’s parent company, Alphabet. 

As a chief product officer, he was responsible for removing the dislike button (a controversial move, according to many) and introducing YouTube Shorts to compete with TikTok. He wanted to introduce the concept of NFTs last year, but the plan was canceled later. He might push it, even more, this year, as the new CEO.  The community is surprisingly quiet after the news was out.
