It is also called the static Web. It was first and most reliable internet in 1990. Web 1.0 did not have algorithms to shift internet pages, which made it extremely hard for user to find relevant information. It was like a on-way highway with a narrow footpath where content creation was done by a select few and information came mostly from directories.

• Web2.0 2005-Present

Specific visions for Web3 differ, but all are heavily based in blockchain technologies, such as various cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Some visions are based around the concepts of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), which seek to enable many people to have equal ownership and governance in an organization. Decentralized finance (DeFi) is another key concept, in which users exchange currency without bank or government involvement. Self-sovereign identity allows users to identify themselves without relying on a centralized authentication system like OAuth.
