"a web3 friend who taught me"
I met Mirel at X, a random gathering where people were casually chatting about everything from tech to random life hacks. Mirel, however, was all about the future — specifically Web3. He was buzzing with excitement about the Reccal Project and how it could revolutionize everything.
But here’s the funny part. While explaining how Web3 would decentralize power and give users control over their data, Mirel got so animated that he knocked over his drink. I watched in slow motion as his cup toppled, spilling all over his laptop.
In a panic, he grabbed a napkin, but instead of wiping it off, he started rubbing the napkin on the keyboard like he was trying to cleanse it from some evil Web2 spirits. It was like he thought the laptop would instantly become "decentralized" by a good cleaning!
We both burst out laughing. But after the spill fiasco, he casually wiped his hands, took a deep breath, and dove right back into explaining Web3, as if the laptop wasn't drenched.
By the end of the chat, not only was I intrigued by the Reccal Project and Web3, but I also couldn't stop laughing at the idea of Mirel, the Web3 guru, attempting to “fix” the future of the internet with napkins
