YouTube has appointed Neal Mohan as its new CEO after the departure of Susan Wojcicki. Before becoming CEO, Mohan served as YouTube's Chief Product Officer and was responsible for the removal of the video dislike button, the introduction of YouTube Shorts, and YouTube Music. Mohan has previously expressed his support for Web3 technology, such as NFTs, and has outlined plans to integrate new features like Metaverse-based content experiences and content tokenization via NFTs. Mohan believes that NFTs can provide a new way for creators to engage with their audiences and develop new revenue streams, such as tokenizing videos, photos, art, and experiences. Despite these plans being intended to roll out last year, they have yet to materialize, but given Mohan's new position as CEO, they may be set for another push soon.
