Web3

The ownership layer of the internet

What is Web3?

The next phase of the internet where users own their data, content, and digital identity through blockchain technology. Web1 was read-only. Web2 was read-write. Web3 is read-write-own. For creators, it means building audiences you actually own, not rented from platforms.

How it works

Key takeaways

  • Ownership of digital assets and identity

  • Decentralized, no single point of control

  • Tokens align incentives between users and builders

Real-world example

Instead of logging into Instagram with your email, you connect your wallet. Your followers, content, and identity live on-chain, not on Meta's servers.
