Relates to this, I have seen some genuinely funny crypto accounts (smolting/inversebrah is a great example) but I've seldom seen extremely funny/high-level non-crypto accounts use web3 platforms. Unfortunately web3/crypto is an instant turn off for most people like that and its a key reason why the crypto part should be shut up about. And attracting those actually wildly funny users is a critical inflection point - you can't just copy/paste their memes, you need those people to actually be "here". Probably one way to improve the likelihood of it happening is to have platforms engage in a bit more banter and accept the fact that banning people is downright hilarious and a great way to cause drama - "permissionless systems" have the downfall that that drama is quite difficult to have happen anymore. All of the classic internet forums, which were the progeny of internet culture itself had a culture where people getting banned was visible, spoken about and hilarious drama that drew people's eyes.
