It's what a lot of web3 believers are trying to build, but it's very hard to both profit and give up control, resulting in a lot of people pretending to do web3 but really it's just web2 with some web3 window-dressing. But, people will keep trying, and maybe they will get it right one day. The dollars right now aren't flowing into web3 though so it may be a while.


Oh plenty of dollars flow into "Web3" -- they just immediately flow out to scammers and hackers.

"Revenue is way up for our Web3 SaaS this qua- aaaand it's gone."


Yep that's the other problem, people write off web3 because of scammers and other scumbaggery, but there is good work being done.


That's rather disingenuous.

The problem is that the technology enables illicit activity on a large scale because of its core premises.

The problem is NOT that people write it off because of the risks built-in to the technology, at least for most people. I'm sure scammers and crypto zealots do consider that a problem.
