Thank you for the very illuminating article, @juxtathinka! You’ve won 434 OCT Tokens!
Web 2.0 is about control, Web3 is about freedom. Web 2.0 is about conglomerates, Web3 is about people. And yet, the current trend is for Web 2.0 companies to attempt at ‘greater relevance’ by aligning themselves with today’s keywords such as ‘metaverse’ and, of course, Web3. Yet, a tagline does not an infrastructure make, as Minima explains and expands upon here.
Well done, @finchpr! You’ve won 260 OCT Tokens!
The greatest approach to improve your Web 3.0 skills is to use them to create coding projects. But building them from scratch and adding different libraries can be challenging. This is why in this article we will be creating a simple full-stack application using React, Hardhat, Solidity, Ethers.js, and Metamask which can be used as a boilerplate for our future projects.
This article is going to come in handy! Congratulations, @suhail! You have won 86 Oct Tokens!
