I think Avalanches probabilistic consensus and XRP’s consensus has some novel answers to this question.

(They’re not 100% of the way there but they point at the solution, I think Flare Networks has adopted an interesting solution that layers these with the EVM)

Current paradigms will be replaced by low-cost, low-energy, etc solutions. This is more about the underlying concept of a distributed database and how it affects other systems.

The same way that current AI is basically an expensive toy in its current form, but the concept of automated intelligence has massive consequences as it scales.

A lot of people are dissolutiond by today's version of web3 (like in this thread).

Consensus algorithms are advancing very quickly, and all of the current critisisms are being addressed. With AI and VR and Web3 developing at the same time, this will be a very path-dependant future.

It all depends on which silo gets built fastest, they will have leverage over how the others get developed.
