Web3 is like Professional Wrestling with its own concept of kayfabe (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe). If you're in the industry, you know that it's fake, but you have to keep appearances to engage and grow. Those that were convinced that Web3 isn't an act end up being "marks" -- they just feed the money to those in the know.

There are plenty of legitimate web3 and defi projects out there. The ethereum network, on-chain real world assets like USDC, protocols like Uniswap and AAVE, interesting stuff happening in the DID space. This blog post just reads like someone (who is this, by the way? this is a single post on a bear blog- why are we taking this so seriously?) who got caught up in and then burned by an overhyped NFT project.

What are the NFT projects that aren't over-hyped nothings that provide no real world utility?

Lens Protocol, some DID stuff like disco.xyz, there are a few that gate access to interesting communities (more than just "here's a jpg"), I think benddao.xyz will be good for borrowing against IP (defined as NFTs). All still very fledgling, but I think these are the types of use cases that will last.
