lack of regulatory clarity

most activities and risks are subject tonexisting regulation and jurisdictional laws.

web3 presents new activities and risks that jurisdictions are in the process of understanding.

BUT the industry has already made significant strides here!

10,000s crypto tokens have launched and have almost no value beyond speculation.

this makes finding the true value difficult.

BUT the cream rises to the top, and the older projects have traction and momentum.

those are better places to start out.

bitcoin and Proof-of-Work mining is considered wasteful.

this presents negative PR and ESG risks for businesses involved.

BUT many blockchain projects are now carbon neutral or negative

and we expect this trend to continue as the industry matures.

many blockchain networks are considered slow for everyday use.

this could create negative user experiences and prevent adoption.

BUT many scaling solutions are being deployed, and many new networks are faster.

the right network depends on the use case.

DeFi and crypto have a history of scams, exchange hacks and fraud.

this damages consumer trust and prevents mainstream adoption.

BUT this presents an opportunity for trusted institutions and brands to make the space safe for the mass market.

the difference between Mt Gox and Coinbase (et al) is significant!

the vanilla version of web3 requires you to manage your own keys.

if your wallet is compromised you will likely lose all of the value stored in it.

BUT there is now an ecosystem of specialists who can help (like crypto custodians).
