I think this is an interesting way to look at it, and probably a good one. But it focuses only on the crypto side of web3, which to me is the least interesting part. To be clear, I personally feel that the next generation of the Internet needs a full reboot. Web3 is the web in name only, and the ideals that crypto bros extol have been hijacked to further these currencies. But until some separation between web3 and “the future of the open web” is clearly created, the current problems with the web3 space will continue to proliferate.

What IS web3 then? if we take Crypto out, isn't Web 3 basically Web 1? Instead of monolithic social networks of Web 2, We go back to independent self ownership of Web 1 when anybody could run a email or Web server as first class citizen? And if so, hasn't market effectively spoken against it? We CAN have independent self owned systems now ; populace just doesn't give a damn - you need to be on social network to be seen or heard :-(
