Metacart bridged Web2 social commerce and Web3 rails: a decentralized marketplace where creators keep control of pricing and provenance instead of renting reach from a platform.

It became one of my three Scopus-indexed papers — the first time something I built survived peer review. The Web3 market moved on; the problem it aimed at (creators structurally underpaid by intermediaries) has not.
