- Explore the progression from Web1 (static pages) to Web2 (interactive social web) to Web3 (decentralized, semantic web with AI and machine learning integration).
- Dive into decentralization: distributing power away from central authorities like banks or governments, enabling trustless systems.
- Introduction to key DeFi tools including wallets for storing crypto, DEXes for trading, and explorers for tracking transactions.
