What would you say to a person that thinks that crypto products (stuff built on the networks themselves) are solutions seeking a problem? I had an incredibly spirited discussion with a non crypto friend of mine and was low key struggling to defend crypto enabled products. Help?

I'd say they’re right. On the individual level, many current web3-based dApps are products in search of a need. But to discount the macro trends towards a new internet, because the current products testing, learning, and evolving are incomplete, would be short-sighted.

That's how most disruption innovation works. It's rarely incremental improvements to existing products solving consciously known needs that change the world. The old Steve Jobs addage: people don't know what they need until they see the solution. E.g., horse & buggy -> car
