Talking to founders:
Startup sounds very cool: zero users.
Startup sounds very boring: $45m ARR.

imho:
Startup that sounds very cool: until now, the feedback loop has been mainly with friends/startup community. So it's an idea optimized to sound cool.
Startup that sounds very boring: it's the result of years of feedback loop with the market.

The most obvious one is moving money (especially cross-border).
Literally 100,000X faster, 100,000X cheaper, without the involvement of any data (privacy), and cannot fail.

Unpopular opinion: the point of Web3 is not decentralization.
People don’t care about it. Most don’t even know what it is.
But it doesn’t mean that it’s not important:

In Web3, your public wallet is a relevant part of your CV.
But a surprisingly high number of candidates still don't realize that.
So, if you're looking for a job in Web3:

The terrible UX is a strong argument in FAVOR of Web3, not against it.
If users are obsessed DESPITE it being literally unusable, imagine when it will be user-friendly.

Will smart people launch new companies with thousands of employees, process lending requests manually, take months instead of minutes, charge 7-30% interest to the borrower, and offer 0.01% to the savers to disrupt that system?

When you play a game, if you spend $ to buy something, you own it.
That means that you can resell it on external marketplaces, use it on other platforms, automatically get access to external communities using it as a "ticket," use it in different games, etc.

The point here is Digital Ownership.
Digital. Ownership.
The ability to own, transport, transfer, and compose virtually anything all across the internet.
Internet-native and borderless money, assets, identity.
This is the point of Web3.

Delay this at your risk and peril.

People taking a loan:
They choose the collateral asset and instantly get the money for 5% interest a year.
Someone else on the other side gets a 4% interest for depositing liquidity.

I wouldn't sleep at night if I had a pre-product startup, $3m seed round, and 15 full-time employees.
But from what I'm seeing, this seems like the norm in Web3 today 😨

An interesting thing I've discovered after a lot of interviews:

We're still early (and with a ton of work to do.)

So, what’s the revolution for the users?
Digital ownership.
That's the real new infrastructure and fundamental feature of the internet.

Resources are finally being transferred back from short-term people to long-term ones.
This downturn was very much needed. It's cleaning up the market from short-term bs projects, scam tokens, and unsustainable leverage.
Let's keep building folks. The journey is still long.

There will always be *centralized* frontends (with alerts, anti-spam systems, algorithmic feeds, cached data, good UI/UX, etc.) and decentralized backends (blockchain).
Why is everyone talking about decentralized frontends? It doesn't make sense.

And just like that, thousands of startups suddenly became irrelevant.
Overhyped trends are the worst verticals to build in because they are where the most talented, well-funded, smart people and companies are building too.

The year is 2022 and I still don’t understand why people describe web3 as “where users own their data.”
1- it doesn’t mean anything
2- it’s not true
3- sounds like bs
4- the least interesting thing you can say about web3 (which is about internet-native assets and ownership)

"Web3" was a phenomenal marketing campaign created by you-know-who.
Being a "Web3-native something" is no longer a defensible differentiation, and it will be increasingly less relevant in the future.
