This is all possible today, no web3 required. Logins with client certificates were solved decades ago and "owning" items digitally is something many services can do for you, see Steam, Amazon Video, Apple iTunes etc. To get those services to give up control and put all their things into web3 is a pipedream.

> Logins with client certificates were solved decades ago Just because you claim it was ‘solved decades ago’ doesn’t mean it’s easier for the average joe. I find that wallet login is much easier, no fumbling around with ‘certificates’ required, and I even hate crypto.

  ...aren't certificates "crypto", just in the actual original meaning of the word?

    Both of them are crypto in original meaning of the word. The difference - UX of wallet-based solutions is infinitely better that UX of browser-handled user certs.
