You don’t own “web3.” The VCs and their LPs do. It will never escape their incentives. It’s ultimately a centralized entity with a different label. Know what you’re getting into…

I respect you & everything you’ve built. I also disagree here. Twitter started as a protocol, the free speech wing of the free speech party. Then corporate & political incentives led to deplatforming & censorship. Web3 offers the possibility, not guarantee, of something better.

I believe

is talking about building on top of decentralized #Bitcoin vs the other “centralized” protocols…not so much about Twitter (he knows it’s a “web 2.0” product that comes with all of the things you mentioned)

If you can build a fully decentralized Twitter on top of Bitcoin and Lightning, using only paper equity and without a digital token, go for it. sphinx.chat is probably the best effort towards this. But it's an important enough problem that we need many approaches.

The problem is you pitch a world of decentralization on web3 but if you just look under the hood they’re anything but decentralized and heavily benefits VCs like a16z. You’re just misleading the public with a bs pitch
