Questions, answered

How often will I hear from you?

Once a week, every Sunday morning. That's it. No daily sends, no promotional blasts, no "last chance" emails. One thoughtful email per week.

Is this financial advice?

No. The 3conomics Weekly is educational — we explain how Web3 works, how value flows, and how to think critically about the space. We don't cover price predictions, trading signals, or personalized investment advice. Always do your own research.

Do I need to know anything about crypto to subscribe?

Not at all. We write for smart, curious people — whether you're a complete newcomer or a long-time investor looking for clearer thinking. Every concept is explained plainly.

Is it really free?

Yes. The weekly newsletter is free and will always have a free tier. We may add an optional paid tier in the future with bonus content, but the core weekly issue stays free forever.

What about my data?

We collect only your email address and never sell or share it. You can unsubscribe with one click in any email.

Can I suggest topics or submit questions?

Please do. Every issue ends with an open question — hit reply to any email and we read them all. The best reader questions become future Big Ideas.
