In 15 years, blockchain and Web3 have gone from a vision of an alternative internet dreamed up by a few programmers to a multi-trillion dollar global industry. But there is still a way to go before Web3, blockchain, cryptocurrency and dApps achieve widespread adoption. In an industry that remains nascent, where do the biggest opportunities and pitfalls lie for businesses? This keynote explores the innovative world of the decentralized web.
Web3 promises to usher in a more user-centric internet, improving security, and opening new possibilities for ownership and monetization. It is already being adopted by companies for a wide variety of use cases from supply chain and IoT, to payments and AI.
As adoption expands, what will a more decentralized web mean for businesses and how can they position themselves to benefit?
The old adage goes that if you are not paying for a service, you are the product. After decades of hacks, breaches and data privacy scandals, consumers and regulators are growing increasingly wary of surveillance capitalism. 87% of US consumers say that they will not do business with a company if they have concerns about its security practices. Similarly, in Europe, 70% of EU consumers are concerned about the use and sharing of their personal data.
Beyond ensuring compliance and avoiding reputational risk, research suggests that some consumers are willing to pay a premium for services that protect their privacy. Meanwhile, the bonds between consumers and centralized brands are weakening. 71% of consumers globally say that they have little faith that brands will deliver on their promises while only 34% think that consumers are transparent about their commitments and promises. Web3 provides a technology stack to enable businesses and brands to deepen engagement with consumers, build trust by design into their data practices, and enhance the transparency of their operations.
