Why Web3 matters
|
||||
</h3>
|
||||
<p class="font-body text-xl md:text-3xl text-body">
|
||||
Web3 gives people control over their data, privacy, and ownership. Lume's
|
||||
affordable Web3 tech aims to speed up the transition from Web2 to Web3,
|
||||
which matters for privacy and security.
|
||||
Web3 often gets mixed up with other terms/buzz words such as "crypto" or
|
||||
"defi". However, the current web you use now is often referred to insiders
|
||||
as "web2".
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p class="font-body text-xl md:text-3xl text-body">
|
||||
While Web3 can include many decentralized services, it symbolizes the
|
||||
multiverse, or the entirety of all decentralized & P2P networks. Some may
|
||||
refer to this as the "metaverse", or even "dweb", but we can agree to
|
||||
disagree 😉.
