I'd like to hear why you think that comparison makes sense. I don't see any way in which the two represent similar functions or parts.

If your argument is based around a token being a sort of domain, then that's like comparing owning real land to owning land in an MMORPG. If your argument is around functionality that's like comparing a car to a parking spot.

What does that even mean?

He "invested" bunch of his money on digital tokens, and now needs them to be worth something by throwing words around

It means that tokens are one of the fundamental building blocks and foundational usecases of blockchain/web3. Are you even trying to understand, or just asking in bad faith? Because I know this website hates crypto which is just embarrassing.

Do you actually understand the value of any of that or are you just parroting something you read? What is web 3 and what concrete benefits will it provide?

It automates and decentralizes the entire financial infrastructure of the world and creates consensus around and enforcement of digital assets outside of the control of single governments. If you can't understand why this is revolutionary and haven't bothered to try in the decade you've been given, I'm clearly not going to convince you. My only recommendation would just be to try it out for yourself or go and listen to someone much smarter than me, like Vitalik, speak about it himself.

You’re right, crypto is deeply embarrassing.

Nah, you're like all those newspaper articles back in the day arguing about the internet being useless. It's obvious but you just don't want to see it.
