"Web3 is going just great...and is definitely not an enormous grift that's pouring lighter fluid on our already-smoldering planet" declares this website sarcastically. The image is titled "A sad-looking Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT monkey looks at a world engulfed in flames." Known as W3IGG to the web3 community and founded in December, this website highlights the continual (and sometimes hilarious) failures of the world of blockchain, NFT, web3 and crypto. Recent examples include a case where a DAO lost all its money after a 'hostile takeover', the convoluted efforts of the Canadian truck protestors to distribute bitcoin they've collected, the Coinbase outage during the Super Bowl, and many more.
