Homework: Web3.0 and Tokens

  1. The value lies within the protocol, more competition, more opportunity for smaller companies and startups, no censorship

  2. A token is a programmable digital asset that represents the value of a protocol.

  3. By utilizing the ERC20 tokens standard.

  1. What are the benefits of web 3.0 (decentralized internet)? Base layer protocols and applications capture economic value, while reducing the risk of centralized entities (i.e., FB) becoming monopolies. Anyone can build whatever they want, and capture value if they provide value.
  2. What is a token? A cryptocurrency that is built on top of a base layer protocol, the most common being ERC-20 tokens built on Ethereum.
  3. How do you create a token on Ethereum? Code a smart contract using Solidity, typically following the ERC-20 standard.

1: Web 3.0 is designed so that many can be involved and own part of the web and business. It’s not controlled and owned by a few companies with monopoly power that can invest large sums and squeeze the average person out of the opportunity to invest. With web 3.0 anyone can invest in XYZ startup. Also, the web 3.0 ecoverse provides for better liquidity making it easily to buy a part of a limited liability oil field without having funds looked up for generations. It also levels the playing field and allows everyone to benefit from technology and the advances and not just a few at the top,

2 A token is a means of providing an exchange of value online using smart contracts.

  1. It’s fairly simple to build an ERC20 token using Soliday programming language. There are also several websites that will help walk one through setting up the token.

  1. Value is more evenly distributed at the protocol level instead of at the application level. Control is not centralized in a few large companies.
  2. A token for Ethereum is a crypto currency that runs on top of the Ethereum network.
  3. Smart contracts are used to create ERC20 tokens on top of Ethereum using Token standards.

What are the benefits of web 3.0 (decentralized internet)?
Add value and incentives to the internet by rewarding users for their use and engagement, similar to mining incentives this reward structure improves trust of content on the internet. Removes middlemen and allows for a fair competitive market.

  1. The benefits of a decentralised internet and blockchain technology include privacy. You can secure your own private data (think data breaches or identity theft). You no longer need to trust those oh so trustworthy (!!) corporations. Nor do you need to compete with them. Due to the small fees and investment, an idea will now go a lot further on relatively small amounts of money. Basically it puts the individual in the driving seat.
  2. Within the crypto world a token is a representation of a share of an asset or utility ranging from a commodity like gold to a utility like a loan or insurance. Usually they are built on an underlying blockchain like Ethereum.
  3. Using the ERC20 standard you write a smart contract.

    Decentralized internet enables users to have greater control of the network since there is no centralized infrastructure which serves as a critical component of it.
    Decentralized internet provides resilience since if the centralized infrastructure is down the whole network will be down.
    Decentralized internet facilitates spread of information since information can be transferred by any of the connected nodes.

  2. What is a token?
    A token is the unit or coin that provide functions in decentralized applications or smart contracts.

  1. Unlike the “normal” web (web2) which is very centralized and in the control of mainly Amazon Google and Microsoft. Web3.0 is decentralized and run on blockchains like Ethereum, EOS, Cardano, etc.
  2. A token in the case of ERC20 is a simple smart contract keeping everyone’s balances, total supply, and name of the token.
  3. If you want to create a simple “personal” token you create a simple smart contract with the properties of the token and deploy it to the blockchain of choice.

  1. What are the benefits of web 3.0 (decentralized internet)?
    A. A huge benefit is that the value is mostly captured at the Protocol level and not the
    Application. Blockchain technology will allow smaller companies to compete with
    much larger corporations in business. From an investment point of view if the DAPP’s
    built on a decentralized protocol become successful, then the underlying protocol itself
    should increase in value.

  2. What is a token?
    A. A Token is a crypto currency resulting from a smart contract or DAPP built upon a
    decentralized blockchain protocol.

  3. How do you create a token on Ethereum?
    A. Deploy a smart contract or DAPP following the ERC20 standard and you can
    have an application that has an attached crypto currency (token).

  1. Some of the benefits of web 3.0 are the fact that the value is captured by the protocol, therefore rewarding the person who worked on it. Also, it allows small businesses to compete against tech giants. Another advantage is that it incentivezes users. It eliminates middle men, and many other things that we won’t know until we see them. All these points would challenge the world (politics, finance, etc…) as we know it.
