Web 3.0

Web 1.0 is an early “read-only” mode in the Internet, where users were passive and not interactive with information published by website operators. Later in Web 2.0, the rise of social media entitled users to upload and publish on their own, developing a new interactive network model with user production and content-sharing. Web 3.0 is creating a decentralized, automated, and intellectualized new Internet world based on the complete return of personal digital identities, assets and data to users.

The current ecological layout of Web3.0 can be divided into the following three layers:

Protocol layer: It contains on-chain and off-chain ones. The off-chain ones include a distributed storage protocol and a privacy computing protocol, and the on-chain ones include a trustless interaction protocol platform and a data distribution protocol.

Application layer: It covers finance, gaming, identity, collaboration, social life and other fields.

Network fundamental layer: P2P peer network layer and cross-platform language.

Through decentralized computing and storage, Web 3.0 has been widely used in private computing, secure information transmission, and private information storage. The maturity of its technology has led to a metaverse boom.
