Web3 Isn't Ready for Primetime: The Reality of Web3

The Web3 can be considered the future of Internet technology, combining the best features of centralized and decentralized networks. However, it is not yet available to general audiences; it depends on centralized components and still has a way to go until its full potential is unlocked. The Oculus Rift provides a very good experience for now--and Facebook's reputation isn't as strong in this area--but your application will rely on decentralized systems that you'll have to trust if they're working correctly. HapPhi Labs hasn't signed any contracts with partners from the Web3 world yet because we want an opportunity for more development before we start selecting one specifically; there are too many improvements needed just within our own ecosystem alone before we even approach anything else at this stage in development!

Today, we are living in an era of the Web3. With the rise of decentralized applications, the Web3 has become a popular way to build and run applications. However, despite the hype of Web3, it is not the ready-for-primetime yet. The Web3 is still dependent on centralized components. This article will discuss the current state of Web3 and how we can improve it.

What is Web3?

The Web3 is a decentralization solution for applications. It consists of a set of protocols that lets you build decentralized applications on top of a distributed network. In this network, the data and logic are split in a way that no single entity controls the data. The technologies used in the Web3 are decentralized blockchain, decentralized consensus, and a browser that lets users access the network.  The most popular decentralized protocol is Ethereum. However, you can use other protocols as well. As long as you can make a decentralized application that runs on the Ethereum protocol, you can use the Web3.

How to Build a Secure Web3

There are two primary security threats in the Web3:  - Data Leak - When a centralized service is used on the Web3, it can leak the data in the centralized service. For example, if you are using Gmail to sign up for a decentralized application, Gmail’s server can leak your data. To prevent data leak, the decentralized application should not store the data on the server. - Code Execution - The decentralized application stores all the code in the blockchain. This makes it easy for a bad actor to attack the application. To prevent code execution, the application should not be stored in the blockchain. You can use external services or run the application in a virtual machine.

How to Build a Scalable Web3

The Web3 is still in its early days. One of its problems is scalability. Today, most decentralized applications run on Ethereum. Ethereum currently has a network throughput of 3,500 transactions per second. This is not enough to support the growing number of decentralized applications.  For scalability, the Web3 must work with many computing systems. A decentralized computing system should use many computing systems to reach consensus. However, the computing systems should be separated from the application so that no one entity controls the code.  For scalability, you can use several techniques. You can run the application on a virtual machine or run it in a cloud computing system. You can also use asynchronous communication to scale the network.

Decentralized Exchange

One of the most exciting features of the Web3 is the decentralized exchange. A decentralized exchange is a system that lets you trade cryptocurrencies without going through a centralized exchange.  The main problem with centralized exchanges is regulatory compliance. Over the last few years, several centralized exchanges were hacked. This led to a lot of regulatory scrutiny. This resulted in a number of countries banning centralized exchanges.  To solve this problem, a number of decentralized exchanges have emerged. However, one of the major problems with the current decentralized exchanges is that they are centralized. You need to trust the decentralized exchange to hold your funds and provide them to the traders. This can result in funds loss if the decentralized exchange gets hacked.

Decentralized Applications

The current wave of the Internet is all about decentralized applications. The Web3 is the next step in building decentralized applications. The current wave has two major challenges: - Scalability - The current decentralized applications are extremely resource intensive. This makes it difficult for users to use decentralized applications. To solve this problem, a number of decentralized applications are building frontends for decentralized applications. - Data Leak - Most of the decentralized applications are centralized. To solve this problem, a number of decentralized applications are building decentralized applications.  To build a decentralized application, you need to use a number of decentralized protocols. To solve this problem, a number of decentralized protocols are building decentralized protocols.

Conclusion

The Web3 is an exciting new era in Internet technology. It combines the best of the centralized Internet and the decentralized Internet. However, the Web3 is not yet ready for primetime. It is still dependent on centralized components and the technology is not there. Right now Oculus has the best experience and the trust in Facebook, is low. Your application will run on a decentralized network. However, you will still have to trust the decentralized network to operate your application. HapPhi is holding off on determining who to partner with on Web3 until the technology comes around.
