More about Web3 with Cloudflare Web3 Gateways📌

Web3 architecture represents a revolutionary shift in how we interact with the internet. It offers a decentralized, peer-to-peer alternative to the current centralized web. At the foundation of Web3 architecture is blockchain technology, providing a secure, transparent, and tamper-proof way of recording transactions and data. This layer is critical to Web3’s ability to enable trustless and permissionless user interactions. Web3 is not just a technological change—it’s a revolution, and it needs your help to build it.

However, Web3 is more than just the blockchain layer. It includes a protocol layer that enables decentralized storage, messaging, and other key functions required for a fully decentralized web. On top of these foundational layers, developers create decentralized applications (dApps) that leverage Web3 architecture to run without relying on centralized systems.

If you’re not sure how to build dApps, don’t worry! Join us to learn more and become part of this emerging movement.
