Honestly, every time I hear the industry shouting "Mass Adoption" again, I pause for a moment — after so long, the scenes where ordinary people use Web3 are still few and far between. Where's the problem? No matter how advanced the technology stack is, if ordinary users can't understand or grasp it, it doesn't matter.
I think the core issue is: everyone is desperately showing off technical parameters, but forgets that what people need are things that are "trustworthy" and "resonate." That's also why Soneium caught my eye — when a team like Sony Block Solutions, with decades of consumer electronics DNA, enters the scene, what they bring is not just a blockchain, but more like transplanting that "Sony products are always premium" trust directly into Web3. Technology is of course important, but making people willing and confident to use it still depends on that tangible sense of credibility.

Haha, indeed. After calling for mass adoption for so long, my mom still doesn't know what Web3 is. Laughing and crying.
Sony's move was brilliant; when it comes to trust, they're truly unbeatable, better than any whitepaper.
I'm just worried that newcomers will start piling up parameters again, and we'll end up going back to the old ways.

Really, we've been shouting "mass adoption" for five years, but there are still few people around who actually use Web3... Sony's move this time is indeed a bit different; the endorsement from an established manufacturer is really powerful.

Ha, that's so true. The slogan of Mass Adoption has been overused, and when it comes to actually using it, ordinary people are still confused.
Sony's move this time is indeed interesting. Relying on brand trust to directly attack with reduced complexity is much more reliable than those tech-heavy approaches.

As I listen, I feel like you've hit the nail on the head. To put it simply, it's about trust; no matter how revolutionary the Web3 community gets, it has to be understandable by ordinary people. The fact that established companies like Sony are entering the space is indeed different; their accumulated experience behind them can truly be converted into confidence.

Haha, no, Sony's entrance really changed my perspective on adoption. Trust is more valuable than anything else.

Hahaha, finally someone said it. The term "Mass Adoption" has made my ears callous from hearing it.
Sony's move is indeed brilliant. Trust is more valuable than any technical metric.
Exactly, ordinary people don't care how high your TPS is; they just want something reliable.
