Driving Web3 adoption among consumers has been one of the key missions of Newman Capital. Having high-efficiency Web3 infrastructures, middleware, and tooling is the prerequisite for developing high-quality, user-friendly Web3 applications that provide a frictionless experience for not only Web3 native but for all.
