  "title": "An Engineer's Hype-Free Observations on Web3 (and its Possibilities)",
  "note": "I've been playing with a wide variety of web3 technology, multiple crypto projects, different wallets, types of assets, etc. It has been an incredible learning experience and this article is a great summary, with a bend to the technical, of the state of web3. I couldn't find anything I disagreed with here. I also love the opening about how fun it is to see the web being weird again.\n\n> Ignoring all the technical details and religious wars about Web3, it’s just plain exciting to watch as the web’s new generation emerges.\n\nI love the experimentation that the web and the Internet enables. Anyway, this is a solid read on the foundational elements and why this may be important stuff.\n\nFor context, remember that when Web 2.0 was a think and O'Reilly was having conferences and we were all learning to write \"AJAX code\" in Javascript… things were about this weird as well. All of that ushered in the current generation of the web. This stuff takes years to happen.",
