The problem with web3 and crypto in general is that most people and energy get attracted by the potential to get rich, and being useful is an afterthought. I would be more attracted if I saw more products that tried to be useful first, and then try to make money for it afterwards. But it's harder to direct so much energy into projects like that.

Products that are trying to be useful first do their due diligence and realize that blockchain is wholly unsuitable for anything other than creating speculative assets and just use a normal database instead.

Well, they also have to pick a payment processor. And find somewhere to host it all. And pay for all of the above.

Crypto doesn't solve this, you still need to pick a currency/exchange and pay them transaction fees. That on top of the potential delay issues/fraud is much harder to deal with in the crypto-sphere etc.
