I think this decentralization and federation is what web3 is all about, without all the corporations calling everything to do with monkey pixel art that costs a million dollars “web3”

Proof of Stake will keep actual resource costs maintainable, and Blockchain does do some cool stuff for decentralization, and therefore federation. Right now Lemmy instances are tied to DNS. Hopefully in the future they will be tied to cryptographic assets. Distributed Autonomous Organizations are a great example of the potential.
What advantage would switching to crypto have? I’m not well versed in how Lemmy works yet but I don’t see why Lemmy would need blockchain.
Because Crypto desperately needs new fodder for the bottom of the pyramid
