web3[0] the library (to filter out the philosophical BS) is just a way to talk to an Ethereum node. It is technically interesting, but most definitively over-hyped for a straightforward JSON-RPC client. Personal Note: Tech aside, I don't like this vision of the web where everything is a transaction with a cost attached to it.
