WEB3 in general

I think that there is a lot of hype, a lot of noise, but also some potential, some signal.

Potential for disruption

Better payments (faster, global, liquid, cheaper, better for consumer/merchant)

Curation (content suggestions, but any web2 company could do this)

Data ownership (but haven’t seen a use case of “WIFM”)

Privacy (but haven’t seen a case of WIFM)

Finance (lending, but no use cases outside overcollatoralised loans)

Biggest challenges:

Adoption and usability (growing from early nerds to mainstream)
