People use the term “Web3” to talk about a wide range of ideas that all point toward getting rid of the big middlemen on the internet. New technology has changed how people use the internet.
There are new social networks, search engines, and markets that don’t belong to any specific company. This is called Web 3. They aren’t controlled by anyone. They are built on the blockchain, which already helps Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies work well. 
In the future of the internet, people can search through data that is stored on many computers at the same time. It’s run by people who use it together, not by a company. People get “tokens” in their decentralized wallets for taking part in the event. Users use tokens to vote on decisions, and they can even be worth real money in the long term.
What is Web3?
Web3 also called the “Semantic Web” or the “Spatial Web,” is the third generation of the internet. It will be easier for people to use, safer, and more decentralized than the first two. There is a rule that says that people own both their data and their online personas. 
As with a blockchain, there is no single server that holds all of the information. Instead, the information is spread out across different “blocks” that are chained together. Because of interoperability, users will be able to see information on platforms and sites they use, but it will also be shared.
People can work with data and AI, and machine learning at the same time with Web3. The idea of the semantic web is also a part of Web3. Because of this, Web3 can let Decentralized Apps (or Dapps) replace centralized social networks like Facebook, Twitter, and so on. People can control their own site, Dapps, and platforms instead of a group of servers that are owned by a company.
Dapps can be made on Web 3.0, where users bring their own data, and their identities are not tied to a single platform. Accessing credentials is based on cryptographic proof, so usernames and passwords won’t be needed as we use them today.
