I’ve noticed a lot of misleading use of blockchain terms like Web3, blockchain, decentralized, metaverse, etc. The semantics of all of this needs to be discussed because I can only expect it will lead to a lot of people losing money.

It seems to me that with a lot of the content I post especially when I dive into decentralization, Web3, the metaverse, and these terms that have been increasingly used as buzzwords that I need to take some time to clarify the semantics of all of this.

It’s become clear that many people are using words like Web3, blockchain, decentralization, and the metaverse for marketing purposes. They are not accurately reflecting what someone would generally assume they mean.
