Summary

Web3 is described as the decentralized evolution of the internet where data is liberated from proprietary databases and operates without centralization through blockchain technology's incentive structure. In 2021, Ethereum-like blockchains are handling significant traffic with some improvements needed, while newer alternatives like Solana have entered the space to address scaling issues. Cloudflare is well-suited for empowering developers to build Web3 applications on its reliable network. The company has released an open-source example demonstrating how to deploy, mint, and render NFTs using Cloudflare Workers and Pages. In Web3 applications, the blockchain serves as a database and smart contracts act like controllers in the MVC model. This approach allows developers to build user interfaces without platform lock-in or data ownership issues. The rise of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) has been significant, with NFT projects like CryptoPunks and Bored Ape Yacht Club gaining popularity. Cloudflare's developer platform supports scalable solutions for each step of an NFT project's lifecycle, making it foundational to the future of Web3 applications.
