Jack Dorsey’s Silicon Valley Grudge Match Has Only Gotten Weirder

The sniping from two of the world’s richest men has, as of late, been about “web3,” a term for what developers think the internet will look like in a few years, a kind of decentralized digital world that operates on a kaleidoscopic mix of of metaverses, blockchains, and non-fungible tokens, or NFTs.

The argument got so heated that Andressen blocked Dorsey.

I’m officially banned from web3

However the fight turns out, it has a feel closer to a professional wrestling match, except this one is between Dorsey, who Forbes says is worth about $8.5 billion, and Andreessen, who’s worth about one-sixth of that.
