the reason gmail allows users to reply to google docs comments inline vs outlook/apple mail dont is that google owns the identity cookie and the api key and the front end.
if there was a way to do so, outlook would do it too. but google won’t let them.
to me —- blockchains fundamentally open up two things - an open api (think lambdas) and an open database (think kv pair). you pay per use for compute and you pay per byte to store. and the payment comes in dollars, just that you need to push it through a translation layer (“tokens”).
the rest of the crypto ponzi schemes are just that. it’ll take some time for that noise to clear before this usecase becomes more well known.
