Chapter 1 in Global Web3 Eco Innovation, 2023, pp 1-7 from World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte. Ltd.

Abstract: Beginning in late 2021, the search volume of the keyword “Web3” on the Internet has grown rapidly. People started talking about Web3, and it seemed that the Web3 dream could become a reality tomorrow.Web3 is not a product that appeared out of thin air but a continuation of the spirit of cyberpunk and cypherpunk in the 1980s and 1990s. The current Web3 revolution resembles a renaissance with the economic stimulus flowing into cyberspace.
