Homework: Web3.0 and Tokens

1 What are the benefits of web 3.0 (decentralized internet)?
2 What is a token?
3 How do you create a token on Ethereum?

1 You will be rewarded with tokens, become more valuable, the tokens will also grow and your value will increase. It gives smaller companies the chance of adoption. This not only gives the company more value, but also the consumer.

2 A token is a crypto asset

3 You can built / programm a smart contract according to a defined token standard

1. What are the benefits of web 3.0 (decentralized internet)?
It will be harder for walled gardens and big players to dominate and reap all the rewards. In Web 2.0 the inventors of protocol did not reap the rewards. Applications sitting on top of the protocols TCP and HTTP (like Facebook and Google) made all the money. In Web 3.0 it is a new world. Individuals can profit in this decentralized system.

2. What is a token?
It is a unit of exchange. Think of Ether as a coin and all the other crypto currencies sitting on top of it as tokens.

3. How do you create a token on Ethereum?
You create tokens on top of the Ethereum network by writing the code in Solidity. Fungible tokens are the norm and you must adhere to ERC20 standards to have your token accepted.

  1. It can not be governed and controlled by a central authority.
    The value of the network goes to the protocol and early adopters before the apps that are built on it.
    Users can be incentivised to interact and share their knowledge/data.

  2. A token is the currency of the dapp that is built on a network. Unlike Eth which is the native currency of the Ethereum network.

  3. By launching a dapp/smart contract which has its own token that is hardcoded into the application.

  1. What are the benefits of web 3.0?
    A benefit of web 3.0 has incentive for early adopters since you can capture value on a protocol level and additional transparency.

  2. What is a token?
    Tokens are either fungible or non fungible on the Ethereum Network.

  3. How do you create a token on Ethereum?
    By creating a smart contract that requires a ERC20 or ERC721.

1. What are the benefits of web 3.0 (decentralized internet)?

Web 3.0 will be a high mix of centralized and decentralized websites which means more opportunity, and ingenuity with less chance of interference from the powers that be. Networks like Ethereum will have the opportunity to build entire ecosystems and economies that completely change the way we experience, utilize, and capitalize the web today. Ethereum can act like a protocol in a sense, but unlike our standard protocols today, it can actually capture value.

2. What is a token?

It is a means of exchange. A token is an issued currency for any smart contract or DAPP and may be used to purchase gas and/or incentivize a user. Gas is critical for executing a smart contract or DAPPs instructions.

1: Instead of apps accumulating all the value, a lot of the value in web 3.0 goes to the protocol, as everything is build on top of it and uses it. You can also reward users with tokens meaning incentives for early adopters.

2: A token is a currency on top of another network. There are both fungible tokens and NFTs, which appeal to different situations.

3: Tokens are created through smart contracts

  1. The benefits are incredible for lower entry businesses and entity that want to take advantage of this economy compare to entry level set by big corporations and institutions such as Google and Facebook . Not only that its a perfect environment for small investors to be early adopters as incentives are favorable.
  2. The tokens are exotic assets that are used digitally to exchange value on the internet.They are fungible (ERC-20) and non-fungible (NFTs) items developed using smart contracts on platforms like ETH and EOS and other blockchains.
  3. Creating token on ethereum means you need to use MyEtherWallet or Metamask to receive test token from Ropsten network or other test networks. When hard coding your token in the source code, that’s when you use solidity language. There are steps to guide each user to make sure the creation of tokens are structured well acording to ERC-20 protocol. For instance, using the Remix web to copy and change the source code of token name, supply as well as ticker and other technical adjustments before deploying it.

Q1: Benefits of web 3.0 is that brings digital value and disruption to the internet at the protocol level. Whereas in the past generally to start a company would require a large upfront capital investment (buildings, rent, equipment, websites and databases etc) meant that the often industries were dominated by the large global companies. But now the ease of access to the internet and the use of the underlying protocols will bring massive innovation and transparency to a wider audience while cutting out the bureaucratic middlemen and wealth drain.

Q2: A token is a digital unit of value.

Q3: Tokens are created on the Ethereum network through development and execution of programmable units of code called smart contracts.

  • What are the benefits of web 3.0 (decentralized internet)?

From a development perspective the benefits come from the fact that value is created at the protocol level as opposed to the application level. This leads to a more egalitarian web, where smaller companies have more weapons to draw audiences and compete against huge firms.

As of now I am not convinced. The problem with the Steemit, for example, is that the model is not original. From a layman perspective it doesn’t seem that much different than iwon.com from the early 2000s (as I recall). Basically you might win cash rewards just for using this search engine instead of Google. The problem is content wins, and the monopolies have better content. Especially if a system emerges where users just go around chasing the latest 3.0 application hoping to find the one that will work.

Of course I am new and likely wrong…

  • What is a token?

A token is a measure of value within a Smart Contract. A token’s value can be monetary - or something else entirely.

  • How do you create a token on Ethereum?

Basically you just write it yourself by creating a smart contract with Solidity.

1- Decentralized Web incentivizes users over the tech giants (Google, Facebook, etc). Now the user and the website owner interact in their own micro economy.

2- a token is a cryptocurrency (fungible or not), which is built on a smart contract, using a platform like ETH or EOS. In the present example it is used along with a website, smart contract (with token) together as a Dapp.

3- partly answered above. A token is built on a smart contract, used as a Dapp. It’s supply can be fixed, it can be fungible or not, it’s uses and permitted users can be programmed.

  1. Web 3.0 makes possible creation of decentralized applications and platforms. Development can be done on a decentralized framework like Ethereum or EOS, which makes it easier for new companies with limited resources. The possibility of tokens increasing in value also helps startups and early adopters. Activities like creating content can be incentivised on a network level by transfering value between users. Decentralization makes the content censorship resistant.

  2. Token is a form of cryptocurrency that is created by implementing a smart contract on a network like Etherum, EOS or Tron.
