p2p file sharing history is littered w/ predictions that a new **unstoppable and totally decentralized** protocol will takeover. It never happened. Users always flocked to the least decentralized system possible. Big lesson for today's blockchain and decentralization ecosystems

The next time you see a decentralized app with a raw UX, remember how Twitter got its start.
Look out for new capabilities these dapps unlock and look for existing capabilities they bring to those without them today.
