Big Tech's Web3 Takeover: Google and Apple Hire Digital Asset Experts
Google and Apple have posted job openings that suggest they are positioning themselves to dominate the infrastructure of Web3. The tech giants are looking for experts in stablecoins, P2P payments, and RWA tokenization.
The job postings appear to indicate that Google aims to be the gatekeeper for all decentralized protocols, while Apple is building a shadow bank through its services such as Apple Pay.
These developments have raised concerns about whether Web3 can remain decentralized when Big Tech owns the rails. Some experts worry that this could be a corporate takeover of the Web3 ecosystem.
