> The early Internet was a toy system, and look how it blossomed into this marvel we call the The (modern) Internet.

Not really. The early Internet was a tool for the army and the academia. Web3, so far, is a tool for speculants.



Regular money and computers can be tool for many, including bad actors too.

Just because it's an open platform that makes speculative assets emerge doesn't mean the underlying technology and philosophy has great potential. I'm pretty much sure that the killer app of crypto is not here yet, and when it is here, it will change many views.

What convinced you?


Convinced? I've been in crypto since 2013 and see where things are going. Also living in a corrupted country with lots of state control over media and money, I see how taking back control would change the society and dynamics.
