I wonder if regular users will be able to realize that they are contributing to the base layer. I assume most users won't care. As long as they are able to use the application that they want, most wouldn't prefer Web3 to Web2 if they have to uproot everything they've already built. I guess we need more than just greater network effect.
I'm going on a tangent, but when one switches phones, there are usually apps that make the move easier. Backing up from the old phone, and loading it to the new. If Web3 or Hive can do something like that for their future apps, maybe we can make the move from Web2 to Web3 easier.
They will only care if they are owners of the base layer coin. That is where the network-state idea comes in.
I guess that makes sense.
