My thoughts on "web3" as a word have shifted thanks to @0xtim.eth
- It makes sense as an industry term between people who understand the evolution of web1 read, web2 read and write, and now web3 read, write, and own
- I didn't know it was popularized by Gavin Wood, a technical builder. Before I thought it was cringe and created and pushed by a marketing firm.

For consumers "crypto" is still a more descriptive word that explains how it is possible to provide the benefits of programmable and open source money and self ownership of all digital accounts.

Web3 or crypto whatever you call it, we’re all here for the same vibes decentralization, ownership, and memes.

I find "read, write, own" to be incomplete, misleading, and unimaginative.

The idea of property developed around sacred objects and then expanded to help avoid conflicts over rivalrous resources. But it's a category error when applied to data / information / knowledge because they aren’t rivalrous. Indeed, they're anti-rivalrous in many contexts (where the value is all the greater the more it’s shared around).
