Whenever I write anything about "Web3," I am beset with the self-defeating feeling that the concept is impervious to criticism. Not because it is any way defensible — its success will make the world immeasurably worse in every conceivable way, more divided, more unequal, more paranoid, and more unsustainable — but because the concept seems likely to profit from any attention it's given. With every piece written about it, it is made to seem more substantial, more unstoppable, to a degree that seems unlikely to be canceled out by any resistance or skepticism any particular essay might generate.
