Obviously the web3 use case that gets the most excitement right now is the ability to speculate on unregulated securities, but I do think there's something interesting with letting users keep control of their data and writing API contracts you can't renege on later. I'm not totally persuaded that blockchains are a better way of doing that than some clever legal work like Creative Commons is, but it's worth playing around with. I hope that part of the space gets explored more.
