The problems of web3

The core problem with NFTs and web3 is that onboarding into the space is still too complex and confusing, there is too much of a technical learning curve, and many of the tools need to be more cohesive and connected.

Unfortunately, solving this problem will take time because every player or organization has the power and authority to fix it all at once. Instead, we see a step-by-step and very organic process, with each new dApp or blockchain project trying to solve one small piece of the puzzle.

It can be challenging for new users to get started on a platform or protocol because there are few easy-to-understand user onboarding flows. Not to mention a complete end-to-end ecosystem that can connect with the existing web2 world.

Setup and configuration might require debugging and tinkering in the terminal because the product needs to be better documented or documented. And what about users who aren't developers? Most creators don't want to become expert coders to create and monetize content.

Where Web2 has reached new heights of accessibility through no-code platforms such as Bubble, AirTable, and Softr, web3 remains technical and inaccessible. Building a dapp requires knowing how to write and deploy smart contracts and plug them into complex back-end infrastructure and servers. This leaves access to new creator economy tools in the hands of developers and a select few creators with a technical background.

Even website builders are more advanced in Web2, with Squarespace, WIX, and dozens of competitors offering simple drag-and-drop tools allowing anyone to build a fully functioning site without a shred of technical expertise. Launching a website that will feature a simple, basic Metamask functionality and integration is only possible with code editing and complications that the average creator will not be able to overcome.

Onboarding, building, and integration experiences must be frictionless for mainstream adoption. However, existing tools and experiences are currently only designed for early adopters at the cutting edge.
