Aggregation May Unlock the Unification of Web3

Aggregation could be the breakthrough Web3 needs to work as smoothly as the internet does today. At this time, blockchain networks are stuck in isolated systems, limiting liquidity and making it harder for users to access everything in one place. Much like the early internet networks that couldn’t interconnect until protocols like TCP/IP unified them, Web3 faces similar challenges. Many experts believe aggregation could be the solution. A big issue for Web3 is that it lacks a cross-chain settlement layer, causing each blockchain to function like a separate ecosystem where assets, data, and liquidity are locked away. An aggregation layer…

Web3 at Crossroads as General Purpose and App-Specific Chains Jostle for Dominance

The Web3 space is at an interesting turning point. A big question looms: Will the future be all about app-specific blockchains tailored to particular use cases, or will general-purpose blockchains like Ethereum and Solana continue to dominate? Both approaches are bringing something unique, and whichever way this plays out, could shape the future of Web3. Currently, general-purpose Layer 1 blockchains (think Ethereum or Solana) are the backbone of Web3. These blockchains are designed to handle every transaction on-chain, but the limitations of this model are clear. As these networks get busier, they need help with speed and cost. Layer 2…

Bitget Wallet Reaches 40 Million Users as Web3 Expands

Bitget Wallet has just hit a milestone of 40 million users, more than double its user base since March 2024. Almost 6 million people downloaded the app in September alone, making it the second most downloaded cryptocurrency app worldwide, just behind Binance. This shows how much more people are getting into decentralized crypto management. The rise of the popular non-custodial crypto wallet is a sign that many people prefer decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and wallets over centralized exchanges (CEXs).

Putting Developers at Core of Web3 Could Boost Industry Development

The Web3 ecosystem has certainly evolved, but there’s a surprising twist: the developer community is quite small. There are roughly 22,000 developers in the Web3 space, which is less than 0.1% of the estimated 27 million developers worldwide. To bring “the next billion users” into the blockchain world, we need to focus on attracting and empowering developers. By putting developers at the heart of Web3, we can spark innovation, boost collaboration and get this industry moving forward. Now, let’s highlight an important issue: the number of blockchain developers is steadily dropping. In 2023, we saw a decline of more than…

How Web3 Enhances Online Security

One exciting aspect of Web3 is its potential to enhance online security. In a world that is facing data breaches and cyberattacks daily, Web3 offers a new approach that is not just cutting-edge but fundamentally different from the norm. While the centralized structure of today’s internet makes it vulnerable, Web3 brings a decentralized system that significantly boosts resilience to cyber threats. Have you ever heard of a DDoS attack? This occurs when hackers flood a server with so many requests that the system crashes, leaving websites and services unable to be used. An example of this occurred in 2010 when…
