Something to Read: My First Impressions of Web3 | Moxie

Master cryptographer and creator of the messaging app Signal, Matthew Rosenfeld (aka Moxie Marlinspike), has sparked quite a buzz over the past week with his latest blog post around all things Web3.

His writeup caught the attention of some heavyweights like the co-founder of Ethereum, CEO of Coinbase, and even Elon Musk had something to say.

Moxie called out several “chokepoints” of the new-age web3 system. Things around the irony of the decentralization thesis, lack of UI on NFT platforms like OpenSea, and the pitfalls of the overall market.

If you’ve been looking for articles on this topic that aren’t 400 level difficulty this is a good one.
