## Quote — verbatim

> The big difference between the open systems that are prominent so far versus web3 is that web3 comes with functionality, whereas open systems don't come with functionality... with something like web3, you use an open source software, it comes \[with\] the network capability where you can fully realize the power of the software.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Contrasting Docker (needs a cloud to be useful) with web3 protocols; part of his answer on how developer experience drives web3 adoption.
