Something that came up in our weekly DAOs call regarding protocol branding and awareness. @yonks brought up something I hear often: "In web2 nobody knows what TCP/IP is, or http" The meaning is simple: Users don't care about protocols. @stellaachenbach had another point that I found very relevant: - part of our job building web3 is building awareness and understanding of *why* web3 So my question is this: Is "abstracting" away the protocols actually the better UX? Or is it a gateway to enabling the centralization of web3?

I think we all try to thicken the colors while painting a common canvas... It is never black or white. We always have many more colors included. Like sayin that people in web2 doesn't know about TCP/IP or http, or bacnet, or whatever is not right. It all depends on the perspective and the job the person is doing. Everyone out there using internet on daily basis and caring about their security in there know at least a difference between http and https. Many people out there would say their opinion about TCP/IP even if it is not detailed or very well structured or even right, but many would definitely have their opinion. And likewise we have many misunderstandings about the protocols in our Web2 life. Like I'm working with building automation and talking about differences between bacnet, modbus, lonworks and all that stuff is a daily struggle just like it is in the web3. The very end user, who doesn't care about anything might not tell you anything about these things, but most people would have opinions.

And I'm not trying to choose any position in there. I'm just saying that we have to find our own way in the web3 understanding that people usually do not care until they don't have to do one thing or another. And having a knowledge base to find the information they need when they need it would definitely be an advantage.
