It is getting to the point where it is becoming obvious how we need to start blending Web 2.0 with Web 3.0. Thinking of simply replacing what is out there with the ability to monetize activities has not worked.

Essentially, we need to provide what they have and then some. Having a better mousetrap is a vital part of the process. That still does not mean victory but it gets one in the game at least.

Few communities took it upon themselves to branch out, based upon the numbers at least. We are missing one of the most powerful aspects to decentralization, the ability to operate in a "Helter-Skelter" way, hitting up many different markets simultaneously.
