In neither of the articles did someone even mention even a use case for something even remotely value creating. I suppose for some, enhanced control and privacy of full decentralization has value, but it's a very niche scenario. Web 1 brought us the internet. It's already decentralized, and it changed everything. Web 3 enabled us to interact a lot more with user-generated content. FB, YouTube. Nice, but it has some downsides. Web 3 ... so far mostly Crypto and NFTs have some possibly interesting characteristics but are mostly giant pyramid/MLM style scams. Web 3, so far, is a lot of hot air and a mostly hollow effort, it's like Tech Buzfeed. We should be doing better than this.
