The web we use today is most commonly known as the World Wide Web. It is a centralized platform that enables use of the internet and also provides the user with various websites and application services. World Wide Web caters to the monopoly of the large tech companies with its centralized structure that empowers these companies to decide on the rules that are set out to define what is right and what is wrong. On the other hand, Web3 is a decentralized platform which is built, owned, and run by the users, and this puts an end to the monopoly of the big tech giants.

Web3 looks forward to a more immersive experience, and this experience can be achieved by making collective use of the hardware and software called ‘The Metaverse’.
