Abstract | The evolution from Web 2.0 to Web 3.0 represents a paradigm shift in internet technology, with a focus on decentralization, user control, and improved security. While Web 2.0 facilitated social networking, cloud computing, and engaging content, it came at the cost of data privacy issues, central control, and digital monopolies. Web 3.0 is based on blockchain, artificial intelligence, smart contracts, and decentralized finance (DeFi) to build a trustless, peer-to-peer digital world that is focused on user ownership and security. This research assesses the fundamental features of Web 3.0, such as decentralized applications (dApps), digital identity systems, and interoperability solutions, in addition to analyzing the adoption challenges, such as scalability, regulatory ambiguity, and usability obstacles. Through decentralized finance case studies, social media, gaming, and data storage, the paper showcases the advantages and challenges of Web 3.0 integration with current digital infrastructures. Future directions point toward developments in Layer 2 scaling, privacy technologies, and cross-chain interoperability to make Web 3.0 more mainstream and sustainable. Though there are challenges, Web 3.0 can reshape finance, governance, and online interactions, leading to a decentralized, user-owned internet. |
