This analysis is incomplete and needs expanding before it can ground any definitive conclusions. If you'd like to help improve it then take a look at our [contributor guide](/meta/editing.md).

## Analysis ## Analysis
The meme of a "new internet" is a consistent and persistent marketing term that has always existed in technology, to the point where the term itself is widely considered a joke. Many technologies are described as being a new iteration of the internet as a way of generating hype or marketing themselves to the public or regulators as important "innovation". [Crypto assets](../concepts/cryptoasset.md) continue on in this marketing trend, yet the underlying reality of the tech is completely removed from any level of paradigm shift that the early internet ushered in.
