Web3 was about enabling us to securely transfer value between people digitally and without middlemen.

It's ironic that the middlemen showed up anyway and busted all the security of those transfers

You want some bipcoin to buy weed drugs on the slip road? Don't bother figuring out how to set up that wallet shit, come to our nifty token exchange where you can buy and sell all kinds of bipcoins

oh btw every government on the planet showed up and dug through our insecure records. hope you weren't actually buying shroom drugs on the slip rod

also we got hacked, you lost all your bipcoins sorry

At least, that's my recollection of events. I was getting my illegal narcotics the old fashioned way.
