YouTube Onboards Web3-friendly Exec as New CEO

After nine years in charge, Wojcicki left YouTube on February 16 and announced plans to launch a “new chapter” centered on her family, health, and independent work.

Before taking over as CEO, Mohan was YouTube’s chief product officer, where he supervised the contentious removal of the video dislike button as well as the launch of YouTube Music and YouTube Shorts to compete with TikTok.

Mohan revealed his preliminary plans for integrating a variety of new features into Web3 in February 2022.

These features include content tokenization using NFTs and metaverse-based content experiences. NFTs, in particular, might offer new opportunities for creators to interact with their fans and create new sources of income, Mohan stressed. He gave the possibility for producers to tokenize their experiences, artwork, images, and films as examples.
