BROUGHT TO YOU BY…

Throughout history, trivia has always been more than a game.

In ancient Greece, scholars tested each other’s wit in symposiums. In 12th-century Baghdad, thinkers debated questions in bustling libraries. Even in medieval Europe, monarchs used riddles and logic games to assess the sharpness of their advisors.

Today, a new chapter in that centuries-old tradition is being written — one that blends human curiosity with cutting-edge Web3 technology.

We’re proud to announce the launch of the MOT Solana Token on Raydium, the official utility token of the Masters of Trivia platform. Built on the Solana blockchain and backed by a thriving global community of over 200,000 players, MOT is the first step in transforming trivia into an economic, educational, and social engine for the 21st century.

👉 The Token is now live on Raydium — secure your tokens early: See MOT Token »

The Web was born thanks to him.

Marquee Event of the Day

June 8, 1955: Tim Berners-Lee is born.
The British computer scientist who created the World Wide Web, forever changing how we learn, connect, buy, sell, argue, and occasionally just scroll.

Why this matters:

Before 1991, the internet was a messy tangle of servers, protocols, and engineers. There were no web pages. No URLs. No “www.”

Then along came Tim Berners-Lee.

With a background in physics and a bold idea at CERN, Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web—the very system that gave us websites, hyperlinks, HTML, and, yes, the ability to read this quiz.

He didn’t patent it. Didn’t monetize it. Instead, he gave it away—free and open—for the benefit of humanity.

Think about that. He invented the digital foundation of modern life… and let the world use it for free.

Tim Berners-Lee changed your life. Time to take the quiz.

From CERN to browsers to the rise of the modern internet, today’s quiz is dedicated to Tim Berners-Lee and the birth of the web.

👉 Take the World Wide Web Quiz now:

 Powered by MOT. “Education, Tokenized.” Now available on Raydium.
