I think one of the more killer features brought to the table is using walletconnect to log into dapps. I can navigate to an app ‘log in’ using my own wallet and it allows me to purchase items without needing to create an account.
This is a breath of fresh air compared to modern ecommerce sites that ‘require’ you to send over a truckload of personal information, create a login, verify your email etc just so you can purchase a single item of clothing.

- chii 6y agoYou create another Dapp, which connects the merchant with a PO-box like warehouse which has numbered drop locations. You pay for a drop location, and the merchant gets the id of that drop location only. They send it there, the warehouse Dapp has to pay somebody to do a physical verification that a drop happened. Then you get notified of the drop, and go pick it up.
