Web3 combines the ideals of the original internet with the most exciting aspects of new technology. 

And the reason this tech currently embodies Web3 is that the architecture of this technology - the very fabric of it - is open source, anti-authority, and decentralized.

Show Notes:

• Read Molly White’s blog ‘Web 3 is Going Just Great’.
