Hey there Hashers!
If you’ve been reading Hashed Out this year, you’ve seen Web3 evolve from a wild idea into something much more grounded. The technology is real. The use cases are real. And the momentum is real.
But the next big question remains: When does this reach everyone else?
In this issue, we look at the path to onboarding the next billion users — what’s working, what isn’t, and why everyday people will adopt Web3 for reasons far more practical than ideological.
Feature Story
The next phase of Web3 won’t be defined by technology — it will be defined by people. This article breaks down the five shifts needed to take Web3 from early adopters to true mainstream use.
Editorial
The final hurdle for Web3 isn’t scalability or wallets. It’s how people feel. This piece looks at why emotional readiness, not engineering, will determine the pace of mainstream adoption.
