Web3 is centralized
It&#x27;s fascinating how on hacker news one typically finds detailed, reasoned and thoughtful comments. However on the topic of crypto and web3 the comments reliably degenerate into partisan tit for tat, consisting mainly of poorly researched, unreasoned sound bytes.<p>It&#x27;s a pity because I&#x27;d love to hear quality thought on the space.<p>My personal view is that crypto and Web3 &quot;are a thing&quot; (Mean Girls) and will continue to be a thing. But the sector is very very new, and supercharged by capital, leading to tumerous horrors. People get burnt, robbed, and jealous, and it leads to nasty feelings.<p>I find the space interesting and exciting, over all. Also massively frustrating of course. But I try to judge all things not by the worst cases of them (Daniel Dennet - I.e. cars are often good, they aren&#x27;t always murder boxes). Looking at good examples also gives perspective on what work still needs to be done in the rest.<p>Can someone recommend places to read or be involved in non partisan discussion about these topics?
