Web3 is expected to solve most of the shortcomings of Web2.

Privacy

Encrypted wallets protect your online identity.

Censorship

A decentralized database stores everything immutably and transparently.

Centralization

You get a real vote on decisions made by the networks you spend time on. More than that, you get a stake that’s worth something.

Most importantly, you are not a product, you are an owner.

According to Sharad Agarwal, Chief Metaverse Officer of Cyber Gear Dubai,  “The vision of Web3 goes beyond the read/write/own web. There is a major power shift happening from the big brands to ‘we the people’. In the near future, you and I will decide what we will shop, wear, eat, etc. Not the big brands. And in many ways, it will reduce wastage considerably and improve sustainability – Good for the Planet.”

A recent study conducted in the US by Momentive, (formerly known as SurveyMonkey), aimed to explore people’s perceptions of Web3.

According to the study, 27% of respondents had heard of Web3, and 8% of respondents claimed to understand it well. The study also found that support for Web3 was evenly split, with 43% of respondents expressing support for the technology, and 42% expressing skepticism.

When it comes to age groups, the study found that younger people were more likely to support Web3, with 49% of respondents aged 18-24 expressing support, compared to only 36% of respondents aged 55 and over.

The study found that familiarity with Web3 varied greatly depending on the respondents’ level of education. For instance, 44% of respondents with postgraduate degrees had heard of Web3, compared to only 21% of respondents with a high school education or less.

This Web3 guide prepared by Cyber Gear is periodically updated and will hopefully help more people understand all the important terms associated with Web3.
