What is Web 3.0 and how does it differ from the previous stages of the Internet?Web 3.0 is characterized by disintermediation and the ability to carry out direct and decentralized online interactions. Unlike Web 1.0, which focused on information, and Web 2.0, which centered around social interaction, Web 3.0 utilizes technologies like blockchain to facilitate a direct connection between users without the need for intermediaries.
How has the construction of trust evolved throughout history? Historically, trust was established through direct knowledge within small communities. With the expansion of commerce and interaction between communities, institutions and trusted third parties emerged to facilitate transactions and relationships. The initial digital era replicated this model, but Web 3.0 introduces the possibility of building trust digitally, without intermediaries.
What are the key enabling technologies of Web 3.0? Web 3.0 is based on advanced technologies such as blockchain, smart contracts, decentralized identity, and cryptographic proofs (like zero-knowledge proofs), allowing for security, decentralization, and autonomous management of identity and transactions.
How is trust established in Web 3.0? In Web 3.0, trust is established through cryptographic verification of identities, the use of smart contracts to define and secure interaction rules, and portable reputation systems that accompany the user across different platforms, eliminating dependency on intermediaries.
What role does decentralized identity play in Web 3.0? Decentralized identity allows users to prove who they are online in a secure and verifiable manner without depending on a central authority. This is crucial for establishing trust in a decentralized digital environment, allowing users to maintain control over their personal data and reputation.
How does Web 3.0 impact online business models? Web 3.0 introduces business models based on decentralization, enabling new types of services and platforms that operate without intermediaries. This can include decentralized marketplaces, privacy-respecting subscription services, and innovative monetization systems for content creators.
What challenges does Web 3.0 present? While Web 3.0 offers many opportunities, it also presents challenges such as the need for blockchain networks scalability, the usability of decentralized applications (dApps) for non-technical users, and issues of regulation and governance in a decentralized environment.
How does Extrimian view the future of Web 3.0 and digital trust? Extrimian views Web 3.0 as an opportunity to expand the way we generate trust online, allowing for more secure, private, and efficient interactions at a global scale. The company is committed to developing solutions that leverage Web 3.0 technologies to build a more connected and decentralized digital future.
