Web3 or Web 3.0:  Everyone must have heard the term Web3.0 or Web3 by now, but few people actually understand what it means or how it will function. This article provides a comprehensive guide to understanding Web 3.0. Web2.0 refers to the current version of the internet, which is dominated by corporations like Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, and Microsoft. Web3.0’s goal is to make the internet more democratic and decentralised.

Web3.0, also known as Web3 and cryptocurrency-friendly web 3.0, is a concept used to define the next generation of the Internet following the World Wide Web. While increasing his investment in the development of decentralised technological systems, Ethereum co-founder Gavin Wood coined the phrase “Web3” in 2014. His reasoning for naming it “Web3” involved drawing parallels to earlier iterations of the web.

In the future iteration of the internet, known as Web 3.0, people will have full authority over their own data and files. The goal of its development is to make the internet safer, more private, and easier to use for everyone. Simply said, the goal of Web 3.0 development is to improve the online experience for everyone.

Web 3.0’s main selling points

1. In a nutshell

Web 3.0 is notable for its emphasis on decentralisation. Decentralisation eliminates the need for a centralised database or middlemen in financial dealings.

A decentralised network will be used to store and disseminate all data.

2. the Concept of Blockchain

One of the main technologies that will drive Web3 is blockchain technology. Blockchain allows for immutable and secure data storage. Create decentralised apps (dApps) with blockchain technology.

3. Tokenization (Noun)

Tokenization of digital assets is possible in Web 3.0. This means that digital coins on a blockchain can stand in for something of real value. This will allow for safer and more streamlined asset trading.

4. Cooperation

The incompatibility of many online platforms is one of the system’s present drawbacks. This hampers the transfer of information and data across systems. With Web 3.0, however, interoperability is feasible because all platforms are built on the same technology.

5. Safety and confidentiality

Web 3.0’s user-centric design gives people greater say over their own information. They have control over who sees their information and why. In addition, zero-knowledge proofs and other emerging technologies will make it feasible to validate transactions without disclosing any private information.

For whom would Web 3.0 be most useful?

Users

Web 3.0’s emphasis on user agency means that information previously out of reach will finally be within reach. They have control over who sees their information and why. In addition, zero-knowledge proofs and other emerging technologies will make it feasible to validate transactions without disclosing any private information.

Builders

Web 3.0 also has developers among its beneficiaries. More dApps will be needed as decentralisation spreads. Furthermore, platform interoperability will facilitate the creation of programmes that can run across numerous platforms.

Businesses

Web 3.0 technologies are also beneficial for businesses. Blockchain technology allows companies to improve efficiency and cut expenses. Tokenizing assets also facilitates easier fund raising for companies.

When and how should money be invested in Web3?

Investing in Web 3 can be done in a number different ways:

Put Money Into The Internet 3.0 businesses

There are a number of businesses investing in research and development of Web 3.0 tools. Ethereum, Polkadot, Filecoin, and Dfinity are just a few examples.

3.0 Web standard protocols

Investing in the protocols that will drive the Internet of the future is another approach to prepare for Web 3.0. Protocols like IPFS, Libp2p, and the Dat protocol have a lot of potential.

Third-generation Web software

Investing in software designed to run on top of Web 3.0’s new protocols is another opportunity to capitalise on the emerging market. Applications in decentralised finance (DeFi), gaming, and social media are among the most exciting possibilities.

What makes Web3 so important right now?

Think of Web3 as the next logical step in the development of the Internet, building on the successes of Web2. The concept of Web3 is relevant to not only the development of the Metaverses and Bitcoin, but also to gaming, NFTs, and virtual and augmented reality devices.

Major Internet firms could be brought down by the decentralisation of the internet. Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft probably won’t disappear altogether from the Nasdaq. The motivation of these businesses to compete with Web3 users who are striving to establish themselves in a decentralised online world is an interesting thought.

Decentralised apps and other blockchain-based technology may gain traction as a result of the digital transformation. Whether or not this excitement will lead to widespread adoption of digital assets remains to be seen. If these endeavours are fruitful, Ethereum’s user base will grow. Potential uses of blockchain and cryptocurrencies may also be brought to customers’ attention by Web3. As a result of Ethereum’s support for cryptocurrencies and NFTs, users can make purchases, create new applications, and more.

Advantages of the Web 3.0

Secrecy

Users have complete control over their data, which is stored securely on the blockchain in a cryptocurrency wallet. People’s data might be donated to medical research or shared with specific individuals and at specific times.

User autonomy and data sharing

Users retain full control over their information. Users are not powerless in comparison to a firm like Facebook, which can’t force people to utilise its services.‍

Speech protections

It is difficult to control content that has been copied across a decentralised peer-to-peer network. (However, this also means that it will be harder to censor instances of online harassment, hate speech, and disinformation.)

Safety

Web3 is particularly secure since it is impossible to modify information that has been validated through so many nodes (remember Jacob’s father trying to turn the blue cat into a cookbook?). However, a fully operational quantum computer, which is still somewhat far off, would supposedly render this security useless.‍

The DAOs (decentralised autonomous organisations) discussed here have the potential to radically transform our existing hierarchical structure into a bottom-up, community-driven one.

In Web 3.0, what function does Metaverse play?

The Metaverse is a decentralised system for building virtual environments. It utilises blockchain technology to facilitate the development of user avatars, the acquisition of virtual property, and the exchange of virtual assets. Many people refer to Metaverse as a “decentralised” or “distributed” ledger, which means that it is not governed by any single organisation. Instead, it is kept up by computers all over the world working together. Because of this, it cannot be altered or censored.

Metaverse is frequently compared to Ethereum since both systems enable the creation of dApps (decentralised apps). But what really sets Metaverse apart is its support for metaverses, which are essentially virtual worlds constructed on top of the Metaverse blockchain. These metaverses can be put to use for anything from online gaming to social networking to e-commerce.

Where Will Web 3.0 Go From Here?

The outlook for Web 3.0 is extremely optimistic. New innovations will make the internet safer, more private, and easier to navigate. Tokenizing assets also facilitates easier fund raising for companies. Web 3.0’s potential and the investment opportunities it presents are both exciting.

Conclusion

Web 3.0 is still in its infancy, therefore it will be some time before all its capabilities are finalised and implemented. Several initiatives, though, are already hard at work laying the groundwork for Web 3.0. These initiatives consist of Ethereum, Polkadot, Filecoin, and IPFS, to name a few.
