As a person in the currency circle, I am very familiar with the word Web3. What is Web3 in comparison? Where have Web2 and 1 gone? Everyone has questions in their minds. In these boring days, Uncle Ai will explain their differences and why we want to build Web3.
Let’s take a look at their differences first:
Web3, Web2 and Web1 are the three stages of Internet development. Their differences are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Degree of decentralization: Web3 is the most decentralized Internet stage. It realizes a decentralized distributed network, removes the monopoly and control of traditional centralized institutions, and allows users to independently manage and control their own data and information. Web2 is an Internet stage where centralization and decentralization coexist. There are both centralized service platforms and distributed nodes and users, but the power and influence of centralized institutions are growing. Web1 is a completely centralized Internet stage. All network services are provided and managed by centralized institutions, and users have very limited power and control.
Data privacy and security: Web3 is the stage that emphasizes data privacy and security the most. Due to the characteristics of decentralization, users' data and control can be more freely managed and protected to protect their privacy and security. Web2's data privacy and security are relatively low. Due to the increasing power and influence of centralized institutions, users' data and control are more vulnerable to infringement and threats. Web1 has almost no concept of data privacy and security. Since all network services are provided and managed by centralized organizations, users' data and control often cannot be independently managed and protected.
Application scenarios: The application scenarios of Web3 are more extensive and diverse, covering many fields such as virtual reality, augmented reality, Internet of Things, and smart contracts. The application scenarios of Web2 are mainly provided by centralized service organizations, mainly focusing on e-commerce, social media, online payment and other fields. The application scenarios of Web1 are very limited and are mainly provided by centralized institutions, including portals, search engines, online games and other fields.
In short, the differences between Web3, Web2 and Web1 are mainly reflected in the degree of decentralization, data privacy and security, application scenarios, etc. Web3 is the most decentralized stage, emphasizing data privacy and security. Web2 is a stage where centralization and decentralization coexist, and data privacy and security are relatively low. Web1 is a completely centralized stage with very limited application scenarios. .
Finally, the Web 3.0 industry market is developing rapidly, which brings great opportunities and challenges to people. In traditional applications, due to the characteristics of centralization, there are certain bottlenecks and limitations, and the emergence of Web 3.0 provides people with a series of new features such as more openness, decentralization, and smart contracts, which makes it subject to Extensive attention and investment have also brought people broader and more diverse application scenarios.
In short, the development of the Web 3.0 industry is continuing, and it has brought people a series of new features such as more openness, decentralization, and smart contracts, thus attracting more and more users and investors. I believe that the Web 3.0 industry market will continue to heat up in the future, and it will also become a more crucial area, bringing more opportunities and challenges to people. #艾链研究院
