Web3 Evolution: Paving your Path from Web2.5 to On-Chain Finance with Haven1

Imagine being able to read, write, and create your own version of the web. With Web3, you can have a financial stake and gain more control over the web community you belong to. It’s like scrolling through your favorite social media, but you could own a piece of it and have a say in how things work. 
The challenge lies in transitioning from Web2.5 to Web3. On the internet, Web2.5 is like a big city where a few companies control everything. For Web3, it’s a much smaller and friendly town where everyone owns a piece of the digital land. The problem is, that moving from a centralized big city to a decentralized small town requires complex Web3 adoption for users and businesses alike.

A shift in this complexity is imminent, particularly with Haven1’s on-chain finance platform catering to the needs of both retail and institutional investors in navigating the transition from Web2.5 to Web3. The change is closer than you think, and Haven1 is brewing a secure on-chain compass to lead the world into decentralized finance in Web3.

Web3 is the future of the internet

In the early days of Web1, the internet was limited to static texts and graphics. Fast forward to a decade, Web2 entered the market, which is much of what you see today. From a static read-only purpose, Web2 is an upgrade to make the Internet interactive. But the issue is, that only top companies such as Google, Facebook, and Amazon dominate the benefits of traffic and value generated on the web. 

Here comes the infancy of Web3, still transitioning through the adoption of Web2.5. It addresses the main issue of Web2 - ownership and control. In Web3, no one has complete control over everything. Everything will be decentralized in a blockchain-based technology introducing new “internet money”, distributed data hosting, and user-controlled platforms.

An important subset of Web3 is Decentralized Finance (DeFi), which will be an internet of money focusing on secure and democratic financial services. With DeFi, you can have access to options like exchanging assets, earning passive income, lending, and borrowing money - all without an intermediary taking a major cut. 

Web3 holds additional other potentials, such as SocialFi and GameFi. SocialFi will allow users to transact money trustlessly within social platforms through a Web3 blockchain layer. GameFi also extends the gaming industry to play-to-earn models powered by cryptocurrency assets and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The possibility for Web3 to take over the internet will change how users and brands interact. Undoubtedly, Web3 represents the future of a decentralized community. As of now, the internet is still in a movement called Web2.5, exploring baby steps to prepare for a full-on adoption of Web3.

The role of Web2.5 in shifting to Web3

The current state of the internet is at a pit stop at Web2.5. The Web3 transition will be a lot more complicated than the change from Web1 to Web2, so Web2.5 innovations are continuously created to prevent alienating future average users of Web3. It’s a long way ahead, but education on blockchain-based systems will slowly carry everyone to the new world of the internet.

With Web3 being an unfamiliar landscape, the missing piece in its evolution is mass adoption. It’s too complex for internet users and brands to adopt and understand. So Web2.5 combines the best of both worlds in Web2’s centralized model and Web3’s decentralized model to create a familiar feel of what’s coming in Web3.

Web2.5 navigates its hybrid purpose through innovations like tokenization, exemplified by NFTs, one of the most popular digital assets. Tokenization converts physical assets, usually created in Web2 platforms into blockchain-based tokens, and allows creators to have control over their works and investment opportunities on the chain.

Here are the main features of Web2.5:

• Facilitates the integration of DeFi
• Educates users on the technical complexity of Web3
• Tokenization of assets
