While NFTs offer the promise of “Web 3.0,” most of the ecosystem—including the websites where NFTs are bought and sold and the platforms where NFT communities engage—still exists on “Web 2.0.” As a result, NFT drops rely on a “Web 2.5” ecosystem where data collection and monetization rule and a plethora of privacy laws, rules, and regulations apply.
