Mitch Liu, co-founder, and CEO of Theta Labs and Theta.tv, exclaims at the alliance with a global icon like Perry, since the partnership also happens to coincide with the launch of Theta’s Mainnet 3.0.

In the last three years, the Theta network has grown leaps and bounds owing to its unique and exclusive way of utilizing the perks of blockchain technology to serve the media and entertainment industry.

Chen believes that Theta’s technology will bring about a revolution to the present day’s online video industry. This will be similar to the renaissance associated with the launching of Youtube back in 2005.
