No, I don't think that's happened yet. I still know tons of people excited to build for "web3".
I don't think we need "rich" websites with javascript, "smart" phones in everyone's pocket, or "social media" at all.
But those all happened, and it seems to be a lot of the same vibe for "web3" builders right now.
- shuntress 4y agoIt's difficult to get a clear picture of what exactly people think "web3" is. My general experience is that people who are caught up in web3 hype seem to actually just want simpler self-hosted/distributed resource redundancy.
