The core idea of Web3 is decentralization, aiming to give users more control through blockchain technology. Unlike the traditional internet, Web3 removes intermediaries, allowing users to interact directly with decentralized applications (dApps). Web3 protocols encompass not only blockchain itself but also storage, authentication, payments, and more. For example, IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) addresses decentralized storage, while Ethereum is a representative platform for smart contracts. As technology advances, Web3 protocols will further enhance decentralization, providing a more open and fair environment for the digital ecosystem of the future. ## Publication Information - [bookking](https://paragraph.com/@bookking/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@bookking/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@bookking): Subscribe to updates ## Optional - [Collect as NFT](https://paragraph.com/@bookking/web3-protocols): Support the author by collecting this post - [View Collectors](https://paragraph.com/@bookking/web3-protocols/collectors): See who has collected this post
