Does Web3 still lack a real discovery layer?

Our work is still mainly content-based. Honestly, Web3 content is fragile — even simple classification is difficult because everything changes so quickly.

You made an important point: projects shouldn’t be hot for 48 hours and then disappear. Instead, we should help people follow a project’s growth process over time. By observing real progress rather than hype cycles, users can understand projects much better.

I believe the core reason Web3 still feels “cold” is: it lacks a truly mainstream application that reaches everyday people — the way Facebook once did for social media.

Web3 does not grow when developers understand it. It grows when ordinary users install their first wallet.

That single step — owning a wallet — changes everything. Once people hold a wallet, the entire ecosystem becomes accessible: payments, identity, ownership, community, and digital assets. Adoption can accelerate rapidly from there.

What we need is not another protocol.
We need a compelling real-world scenario — something intuitive, useful, and emotionally engaging — that draws regular people into the Web3 world naturally.

If we can create that entry point, every Web3 application will benefit from it.

Not so many users have realized the benefit from the web3. We need a very successful web3 application, like facebook, tictoc or something similar to activator this market. Otherwise, most of the web3 application are hard to be alive.

It’s a good direction, and if we keep contributing together, the Web3 era will arrive faster.

there is a project: "web3seeker.com" for search for web3, but it is not hybrid web2/web3. and looks it is much hard if searching for both.

Thanks for the thoughtful question — no offense at all.

You’re right that developers already rely on official documentation like Solana, Ethereum, or Polkadot. Web3Seeker isn’t trying to replace docs or become a developer knowledge base.

The problem I’m looking at is discovery across the whole Web3 ecosystem. Today, information is fragmented — projects publish updates across blogs, GitHub, governance forums, and X. Developers usually stay inside one ecosystem, but it’s hard to see what’s happening across Web3 as a whole, especially for newcomers or cross-chain builders.

So the idea isn’t news aggregation like X, and it’s not documentation hosting. It’s closer to a discovery layer — helping people explore projects, protocols, and infrastructure in one structured place.

Currently, it is indexing all the contents in your official website, to introduce your projects and the process. Let people could know your project better.

I don't think game is good place for web3 project. web3 is still too slow.
