⁠Can Web3 compete with Web2?

Web3 challenges Web2 with decentralization and transparency. Its success requires global adoption and a new mentality. Coexistence is possible.

When a new technology challenges an established one, narrative is essential. Promising a better future may capture initial attention, but it does not guarantee success. Real adoption, measured by indicators such as the number of users and the growth of the user base, is what defines success. User engagement and industry impact are signs of a technology on the rise. Recognition, like media coverage, also signals acceptance. However, mass adoption is essential; a technology must be chosen by the majority to become the new standard. It is not enough to be better in theory; Practical adoption is the ultimate test of superiority.

Web 1.0, known as the first phase of the World Wide Web, emerged around 1990 and was characterized by static web pages that offered no interactivity. In this era, websites were primarily informational, with fixed content stored directly in HTML files, without databases. Users could read information and navigate through hyperlinks, but they could not interact or contribute content.
