The difference between Web 2 and 3 is that no one had to write long Twitter threads daily on why Web 2 was the revolution, and what builders should be making with it. It was organic because there was demand from consumers, and people used the tools available to them to fulfill that demand.
Web 3 is artificial, with little to no demand outside of being a vehicle for unregulated speculation. The people most excited for Web 3 aren't builders nor consumers, but venture capitalists and people with a financial stake waiting to cash out.
