From web1, known as the “static web”, to web2, the “social web”, to web3, the “decentralized web”, the evolution of the internet has profoundly shaped the way in which contemporary society functions. Global interconnectedness from both a social and professional lens has allowed for unprecedented collaboration and exchange of ideas. And where web2 has fallen short, web3 is picking up the pieces and creating something completely new.

Diverging from the web2 paradigm of centralized control and data mining, web3 is built on decentralization, trustlessness, and permissionlessness. With these core principles guiding its development, web3 provides a more secure means of connecting, transacting, and working. As global markets have increasingly begun to leverage web3 technologies, profound shifts in global workforce management are quickly following suit.
