Understanding Web3: The Next Generation of Internet Technology
Get ready to dive into the future at the Web3 Solutions Workshop hosted by Francesca Ranieri at zkPass!
As this is our first year introducing Web3 technologies, we want to gather insights on what interests our attendees explicitly. Your input is invaluable to us, and we would appreciate it if you could take a few moments to complete a short questionnaire.https://forms.gle/HbRd3Yiv9emmuwEm9
Join us Friday, June 14, 2024, from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM at the Dublin Royal Convention Centre upstairs in the Higgins Suite. A brief intro into:
Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies: Blockchain is the underlying technology that ensures secure, transparent, and immutable records. Cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, are digital currencies that operate on blockchain technology, offering new paradigms for financial transactions and investment.
Smart Contracts: Self-executing agreements with terms directly written into code, eliminating the need for intermediaries and increasing efficiency.
Decentralized Finance (DeFi): Financial services provided through decentralized networks, allowing activities like lending, borrowing, and earning interest without traditional banks.
Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs): Unique digital assets representing ownership of virtual items, from art and music to virtual real estate, transforming the concept of digital ownership.
Decentralized Apps (dApps): Applications running on decentralized networks, providing enhanced security, privacy, and resilience.
Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs): Organizations governed by smart contracts, where decisions are made through decentralized voting by members.
InterPlanetary File System (IPFS): A decentralized storage solution designed to make the web faster, safer, and more open.
Web3 Identity and Authentication: Solutions that enable users to control their own digital identities without relying on centralized entities.
Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs): Cryptographic methods that allow one party to prove to another that a statement is true without revealing any additional information.
Web3 technologies are reshaping how we interact with the digital world, offering new opportunities for innovation and efficiency across various sectors.
