I've already rambled way too long so I won't continue my analysis to this effect, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention it at all. At the end of the day WEB2 simply cannot compete with WEB3, and it is only a matter of time before WEB3 has the open-source cloneable infrastructure and templates to stomp WEB2 into the mud where it belongs.

This post was hardly a ramble. The intricacies of this topic make extensive explaining as inevitable as the switch from WEB2 to WEB3 currently looks.

The cloneable infrastructure raises another concern for Hive.

What's to stop big tech from simply cloning our infrastructure and onboarding the masses to their copycat blockchain(s)? Nothing as far as I can see, and can Hive really compete with this level of power introducing itself as something new to the masses, which they will surely believe and most will not have the capacity to comprehend how the system works or question anything critically enough to come over here and support this network for being first in line.

It's kind of a depressing thought.
Please tell me I'm missing something here with the logic, it would make me feel better.

Great post, it's a really important topic on so many levels.
