How Web3 Will Impact Traditional Institutions?
Tech Leaders have different opinions on how Web3 will impact centralized institutions, especially considering that Web3 to some extent means decentralization.
Walter Steelman, the CEO of 11 Marketing+Desgin told that “To date, it(Web3) appears to be a dream that is just beyond our reach.”
On the same note, Jeane Sumner, WebsiteHQ CEO comes with the following idea - While Web3 is still in its early stages of development and adoption it's easy to imagine if it will have the potential to disrupt these more traditional institutions because of more transparency and accountability.

In contrast Leticia Mendonca, Pengreen Design Founder stated the following: It's a threat for them(centralized institutions) because they lose control of the people, and I would include banks there too, the ones that fear the most. They are already rushing to have web3 incorporated into their process, but it's not decentralized. An example is Ripple, part of web3 but still a centralized ecosystem.

More moderate opinions, such as Serge Lavrinchuck, Wild.codes founder, consider that Web3 could lead to a shift away from traditional centralized institutions by providing alternative systems for exchanging value, accessing services, and protecting personal data. For example, Web3 technologies like blockchain could allow individuals to control their own financial assets, rather than relying on banks. This could lead to new forms of social organization and more equitable distribution of wealth and power. An opinion shared by Mobiteam GmbH
