Web3, NFT’s and DeFi are a sham without a blockchain scalable at L1

I recommend a reading of “My first impressions of web3” written by Signal app creator Moxie Marlinspike, as well as “Signal app creator Moxie Marlinspike proves NFT signal-to-noise ratio is low”, a commentary written by Jerry Chan.

Moxie describes the current status of Ethereum, on which almost everything relies on L2 solutions and thus has become re-centralized, as almost all dApps use either Infura or Alchemy in order to interact with the blockchain. This is not only a security problem but also a privacy problem.
