this is entirely a factor of undiscerning consumers, companies that should have been ignored simply arent

and that has nothing to do with the technology where parasocial relationships arent needed. there are plenty of web3 projects that provide utility and without the parasocial relationships described here

(and yes, tools for speculators are utility, people really act like they never heard of financial services as soon as someone mentions crypto/web3 and utility in the same sentence)

What are some useful web3 projects that presently provide real world utility?

It matters more about what any 1 person gets utility out of, than the distinctions you’re aiming for, some examples

I get utility out of Multisender.app and similar competitors because it saves me time and money repeatedly in batch sending

I get utility out of zapper.fi and debank because it saves me time and money in accounting

I get utility out of Filecoin because the nodes pin IPFS links, solving a costly problem for me as all the Web 2.0 pinning services like Pinata are costly subscriptions

Snapshot for offchain voting has been a helpful coordination tool for communities that dont want to burden with transaction fees, and its been useful for me to see the results of votes quickly

I exist in the real world and these are successful businesses in the real world extracting a little value by providing a convenience
