Web 3.0 | Blockchain | Crypto
By a Student who is Always Learning
Jaskaran Singh Manocha
/in/jaskaranmanocha/ @jaskaranmanocha
@jaskaranmanocha
The term Web 3.0, coined by reporter John Markoff of The New York Times in 2006
2008 -> 15 Years Before | 2nd Quarter -> Results in June 2008 -> World’s Fourth Largest Bank
Lehman Brothers | 91% Profit Dropped ?
15th September 2008 they filed for Bankruptcy under chapter 11 in American Court
Liability: 619 Billion | 639 Assets
Chairman of FED said we are govt. & we won’t save them.
Semantic Web improves the abilities of web technologies to generate, share and connect content
through search and analysis by understanding the meaning of words rather than by keywords or
numbers.
But After 21 hrs America Bailout’s one
company -> AIG Company
Economy Fell Down, Govt can’t save the Economy
Financial war always started in America
AI: By combining semantic capabilities with natural language processing, computers can understand
information on a human-like level to provide faster and more relevant results. In doing so, they
become more intelligent and better satisfy the needs of users.
Bitcoin.org -> 18th Aug 2008 | 28 Days gap before the collapse of
Lehman brothers
Satoshi Nakamoto -> Osama Bin Laden Found Out by American Govt.
Satoshi – nakamato ?
Satoshi Means Rakh -> Ash -> Pokemongo -> Slogan “We will get
them all in”
3D Graphics: Three-dimensional design is used extensively in websites and services in Web 3.0.
Museum guides, computer games, eCommerce, geospatial contexts and more are all common
examples of this.
Proof of work
The Proof of Work is a brute force search for nonces so that the hash of the block header
meets a certain target difficulty.
By expending resources (hardware, electricity, cooling) miners race to solve the hashing
puzzle. The winner claims the bitcoin reward by announcing that they have performed the Proof
of Work
The cumulative Proof of Work in the blockchain is what secures the blockchain and makes it
tamper proof and immutable
Current mining activity https://blockchain.info/charts/hash-rate
The target difficulty adjusts approx. every two weeks to reflect the total hashing power and the
average time to mine the block to be 10 minutes
Ethereum
Proposed by Vitalik Buterin in 2013 (when he was 19
years old)
A decentralized network to run smart contracts
(software)
A more technical definition – Ethereum is a distributed
state machine (a global computer) with no single point
of control.
Compare this definition to the standard client/server
architecture.
So computers in this decentralized network run your
program instead of a central (trusted) server.
Ether is the currency to pay for your contract to be
executed on the blockchain
