What do you wish people were building that they aren't?
I wish I knew, but if I knew i would pitch to someone and help them build.
True convergence between decentralized finance and decentralized internet.
True no-custodial P2P micropayments in applications with high frequency sub-dollar transactions.
Replacement of login/password ecosystems with bitcoin keys derived authentication
More consumer friendly home devices that actively participate in the network (meter readers, content distribution networks)
I just can't imagine!

how do you think the idea of replacing logins & passwords with bitcoin keys will be monetized?
will all consumer apps shift away from passwords?
reply
Personally I would pay for this because it solves a ton of logistic problems if done the right way, can improve personal data protection for an ordinary person and it can save a decent amount of time and mental overhead. Time and mental capacity are precious for almost everybody, I believe. So I imagine an app that charges a fixed fee or a subscription (with backup restore via multisig for example)
Replacement of authentication in all consumer apps is probably a huge challenge. Unless there is a way to recreate a new identity ecosystem that will overgrow MSFT/APPL/GOOG.
