Reading all the hot takes on crypto/web3 going “but what use case does it solve?” and mostly thinking to myself that these folk have such confidence in their opinions.

Please remember that the survivorship bias is strong when reading a book about Intuit.
Lacking a direct use does *not* make a technology *more likely* to survive.

The point isn't that such cases do not exist. There is tech that succeeded because it had a clear use case, as well as tech that succeeded even though it had no clear use case. The point is that 'having a use case' is not a useful/sufficient criterion for tech success.
