I wouldn't call myself an expert in Web3.
However, I have spent the last three months going down the rabbit hole and learning everything I can.
Here's how I first got interested in Web3:
In 2022 my Twitter feed turned Web3 crazy. There was capital flowing freely and top talent was moving into the space. I was intrigued!
I sat down to a family dinner and shared my growing interest in Web3.
The response "Crypto and NFTs have no real-world use cases and the industry is full of scams".
I didn't have a good reply or data at my fingertips to share and that annoyed me.
It was time to stop reading and start doing.
