At the beginning
Hello, I’m Beima
Let’s talk about some of the best things in the industry, Web3 and Metaverse
What was before Web3?
Web3 was preceded by Web1 and web2, which is certainly not nonsense.
“Age
Products of each era are representative. The representative product of the 1.0 era in China should be UC Browser, which was very successful at that time. It was mainly used as a mobile browser to display shocking content and attract users to click and browse.
Users In the 1.0 era, user groups were more passive consumers of content. For example, we often joke that you should work in the shock department of UC. Then create all kinds of shocking content that people click on and read
1.0 era products, static content display.
Web2.0 era
In the era of 2.0, the products represented are TikTok,Youtube, Douyin, content content, etc. In this era, emphasis is placed on interaction, user-generated content is uploaded to the platform, and the development of social media is promoted. Users have changed from passive content consumption of 1.0 to active content creation and disseminator.
In the 2.0 era, users actively participate in content contribution and promote communication. The company that develops the product is more of an intermediary, responsible for unified scheduling and processing
But the problem of 2.0, is also very obvious, we sell goods on a platform, for example, because we need a platform of infrastructure, platform must smoke, and we want to follow his rules, centralized data storage control, can be fake, can be tampered with, we may not know, 2.0 fatal defect is not demonstrated the value of the user
However, these are not the reasons why all applications need to switch to web3 scenarios, and you can always use web2 applications without switching, domestic most likely to wait for a long time, may not use Web3.(details will be discussed below)
Let’s focus on Web3
Web3
First, Musk diss Web3 multiple times on Twitter, and the world’s richest man has followed
Some companies, including Reddit and Discord, have explored integrating Web3 technology into their platforms by the end of 2021. After user backlash, Discord later announced that it had no plans to integrate the technologies
Everything has two sides, we saw the richest man said it is not good, we are going to dig into the good web3. That’s my mindset, and when there’s a lot of opposition to something, I dig deep into its strengths. Once there’s a lot of praise for something, I understand its disadvantages.
So what exactly is Web3?
Introduction to Baidu Encyclopedia:
Web3.0 is an Internet method developed on the basis of Web2.0, which can better reflect the labor value of Internet users and realize the balanced distribution of value.
Overall, web3.0 is more than just a technological innovation. It is a technical integration that provides users with more personalized Internet information customization through a more concise way with a unified communication protocol. It will be a key step in the development of the Internet from technological innovation to user concept innovation.
As some things related to blockchain are very sensitive in China, we can see baidu’s baike is also written very cryptically.
Web3, as I understand it, is a concept. The main implementation can be divided into the following points:
1. On the basis of Web2.0, decentralized mechanism is introduced, including domain name, distributed data storage, distributed content storage and other aspects. All of these are based on reliable blockchain, which can not be faked, everything can be traced, and data can not be lost. For example, IPFS, Ensuser, ethereum main chain all solve these problems
2. On the premise of the first point, solve the core problem of 2.0: highlight the labor value of users. For example, if you help others by answering questions online, your wallet will receive a corresponding number of coins. You can withdraw cash or transfer money at any time
3. Content sensitive, direct screenshots of Baidu Encyclopedia, mainly virtual assets are recognized, on the chain. Similar to NFT, not lost, not tamper with, security, cash
Web3 is mainly the innovation of ideas, highlighting the labor value of users. This is all based on blockchain technology
Since today’s lecture is not about the principles of blockchain technology, we can talk about it next time
Web3 currently uses the following technologies:
Web2.0 based technologies plus: solidity, cryptography, blockchain principles, wallet concepts, NFT concepts, distributed storage (IPFS, InterPlanetary File System),http3.0, etc. I have not used other techniques for the moment, if you have something to add, you can add it in the comment area
Metaverse?
The same concept, Metaverse, has been very popular recently
Facebook renamed Meta. Direct soha Meta universe, we don’t patronize the joke, the domestic traditional Internet, the dividend period of e-commerce has passed. But it’s not like some bloggers are talking about 3D animation, 3D games and things like that, because those technologies can be implemented very well now
The core of the meta-universe is hardware. I bought VR glasses in college, so I have a better say. In addition, at the end of 21, our company’s annual travel, our department went to Zhuhai Hengqin
There were four floors of VR games to play, and this trip made me believe in the future of the metaverse. The prototype of the meta-universe is VR games, but how to let users have a real experience?
I think there are the following possibilities:
1.VR glasses + equipment
2. Brain-computer interface
Zhuhai Hengqin VR experience hall is the first VR glasses + equipment, so that we can experience the feeling of driving a motorcycle through the rain forest night, I even nearly threw up at that time, so real.
VR glasses and roller coasters are also used to simulate the feeling of soaring in the virtual world
Use VR glasses and seats to simulate the feeling of fighting in a tank
This is all based on hardware, software technology is not the focus at the moment.
My understanding of the metasexes, based on Web3, can have simulated worlds that we can live in and make money from. For example, in one scenario, the designated driver can take advantage of VR glasses, supporting equipment and 5G transmission to help the car owner who has drunk alcohol to take advantage of the blockchain transfer function, and the money will be automatically transferred to the wallet after completion.
We’re in the virtual world, working, making money. The money is automatically transferred to the wallet
And so on…
Why the meta-universe?
Because there is a limit to how fast the population can grow, it will work faster to build more innovative things to attract people to participate, whereas traditional Internet growth is sluggish. NFT is already being carried out in China. Although it is cracking down on virtual currency, this is a positive signal
Finally added
As all of my classmates are pure front-end engineers and have not fully participated in the design of the front-end and back-end architectures of a project, I add a comparison diagram of web2.0 and 3.0 architectures:
- 3.0
- 2.0

I am beima, an Internet man who is afraid that you will suffer losses. I have established a peach blossom island in the complicated Internet and real world, hoping to cultivate evolution and improve together with my friends. Welcome to the island. — > the boiling point
