NFTs, cryptocurrencies, DeFi...

they're buzz-wordy and hyped up, but for a good reason:

Web3.0 is here to stay

but, what is it?!

here's a thread of the best resources to learn about the next evolution of the internet 👇
1. Don't know what "web3" even means?

Here's @dabit3's excellent overview on the phases of the internet.

web1 -> web2 -> web3

tldr; web3 is the the latest and greatest way for us to hang out online

2. Want to see what it's like to make a protoype in web3?

Here's @camiinthisthang's awesome overview blog on building a web3 app.

- learned from @_buildspace
- practiced read/writes to the @ethereum blockchain
- used @HardhatHQ, ethers.js

3. Want to publish a web3 app that real users can try?

Then you need to talk to all the computers that are managing the blockchain. @AlchemyPlatform's gotchu:

- deploy a smart contract to testnet
- get it verified on @etherscan
- build a website

4. Prefer watching a video?

Here's @PatrickAlphaC explaining what it's like to become a blockchain engineer.

Warning: it's a pretty fun video 😂

5. More videos

@DappUniversity also has an amazing youtube channel full of tutorials, current events, and more

5. Are you confused about all the weird words that you're starting to see on everyone's tweets?

Here's @petergyang's excellent beginner's guide to crypto concepts:

6. My favorite podcasts to listen to for crypto things:

- @Unchained_pod
- @APompliano's Pomp Podcast
- @BanklessHQ
- @futurealisha

7. Another great developer advocate to follow: @saminacodes

8. and a shameless self-plug 🙃

let's say you're on the market for an NFT

you're browsing @opensea, you have your @MetaMask wallet ready...

Q: how do you know that the art you're buying has a chance to last long into the future?

A: check if the art is hosted on @IPFS or @ArweaveTeam! 👇🏼
Most NFT projects on OpenSea are either

A) directly uploaded and sold via OpenSea, or

B) built as an ERC721 or ERC1155 contract and integrated after minting
in either case, how do we check where the art is hosted?

there are TWO pieces of data you want to check

1) the METADATA
2) the IMAGE

you want both to be decentralized, so that they can last FOREVER (see last tweet for deets)

The stronger the network effect, the better the security and development it enjoys, resulting in an entrenched advantage." - @LynAldenContact
