OK. Someone was very bored and upset and decided to pay for a domain specifically to determine if one needs web3 or not, which for them, they know that the answer is No. But they knowingly post it here anyway to try and waste your time and rack up low effort reactions. To each to their own. However, does that also mean it is all going to collapse and go away 100% guaranteed because you don't need it now? EDIT to OP (…

Nobody needs it. EXCEPT!!! Startups that have to return some money to VCs, soon. You know buzz-driven-tech and not actual returns ...

Is that why you failed to answer the question? Are you now going to answer it?

Does that also mean it is all going to collapse and go away 100% guaranteed because you don't need it now?

You also don't need to import a Roboto font from Google to display two letters --- and yet, here you are.

Oh yea, it's difficult to find two letters static webpage done this much wrong. Thanks. Also, i blocked the "much needed" google font, apparently for no loss. Nice example how much bonkers are todays web-doers.

I'm a bit disappointed this is not server side rendered with Next.js.

We do need decentralization for some applications. Few but not zero of us need cryptocurrency.

The problem is cryptocurrency taking over decentralization, and removing some of the advantages(Its usually not fully partition tolerant or suitable for an emergency when your area only has crappy inefficient mesh nets, phones, and 20w solar panels)

I'm sure this thread will become a long well thought out discussion.

I'm not sure when it happened but all of suddenly the discussion on anything related to blockchain became very black and white. Anyone that tries to nuance the topic gets immediately called out as favouring this or that.

Well there is a whole lucrative industry hyping the shit out of it, and the rest of us who can for the life of us understand how this is useful.
