How does Solana Spaces plan to move forward?

Since launching the first Solana Space store at New York City’s Hudson Yards in July 2022, CEO Noby and his team have been hard at work to continually provide visitors with interactive modules to learn the various functionalities of the Solana blockchain, from setting up a crypto wallet to trading crypto on a decentralized exchange.
