Internet Evolution to Web 4.0

Classic Internet

Everything is structured as client-server model

  • The servers run as applications inside huge datacenters using a lot of energy
  • Most of the processes in those servers are being repeated = highly inefficient
  • We exist 100x times, very inefficient
  • This leads to a lot of centralization -> insecure, as well as abuse of our data
  • This has also been called Web 1.0 and Web 2.0

Blockchain Based Web 3.0 Vision

Blockchain decentralized the server, but in principle it remains a client - server model

  • It is definitely a step in the right direction but the paradigm is the same
  • We as users still exist in different systems, and have to deal with different applications (protocols)
  • These blockchains can be integrated, and through Web 2.0 concepts the web application can interact with multiple blockchains at the same time
  • This has also been called Web 3.0

The browser has now become our operating system running on javascript. All applications run in our browser and interact with multiple blockchains.

Please note we are 100% compatible with Web3 and we support this way of working completely. We see ourselves as a missing layer for Web 3.0.

Evolution To Peer2Peer

The Web 4.0 Digital Twin Vision

In the Web 4.0 vision, the user has been put in the center (digital twin usecase)

  • you in the center of your digital life
  • blockchain only needed for specific functions (money, identity, smart contracts, ...)
  • internet 10x more efficient
  • data sovereignity for all
  • an internet created by all for all = be the internet
