First, let me define what I mean by Web 3.

Web 3 is the next step in the evolution of the Internet.

It is a new iteration of the Internet that resides on decentralized blockchains.

At its heart, the culture of Web 3 is all about decentralization and privacy.

Web 2 is highly centralized, around huge companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft. They control almost everything, including your personal identity and information.

Web 3 is the opposite of that. With blockchains like Ethereum there is no central company. No boss. No shareholders.

On the left is a Patek Philippe Aquanaut. This is a beautiful, high-end mechanical watch. You can pick one up for about $60,000. More or less.

On your right is Bored Ape #4108. Last time this Ape changed hands, the buyer paid about the same… $60,000.

Bored Ape #4108 is an NFT… a Non-Fungible Token, or unique digital asset.

If you have no idea what NFTs are, or have never heard of Cryptokitties, Cryptopunks, Art Blocks, or the Bored Ape Yacht Club, here is some reading for y ou.

Anyway…
