Really enjoyed Read Write Own, @cdixon.eth—a lot of insight packed 200+ pages.

Questions I'm wondering about now:

1. Can blockchain networks overcome their "cold start problem" (as Andrew Chen puts it) in markets where there are aggressive, deep-pocketed corporate incumbents who can undercut them and wage a price war for a prolonged period? Perhaps this is where venture comes into play? Should entrants target niches to avoid this corporate competition (i.e., instead of web3 Uber or web3 Airbnb, focus on carving out new markets per "1k true fans" concept)?

2. Is blockchain viable long-term, cryptographically? Can it stay ahead of quantum computing and its ability to hack it (i.e., can it be quantum resistant)?

3. With deep fakes already here, there’s a clear need for identity verification and attestation, but is there a place for pseudonymity in other areas of web3 digital life?
