Blockchain technology is not cryptocurrency, but it powers decentralized finance! Blockchain is a method for storing data \u201cblocks\u201d over a distributed network. Most established blockchains are virtually tamper-proof because all block records and transactions must be verified across their distributed networks.<\/p>\n

NFT stands for non-fungible tokens. Ummm, ok, and what is that? Read the whole article<\/a> to find out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

NFTs are original and unique records of digital data documented on blockchain. Collectible NFTs are singular stores of digital data with a perceived value.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Utility NFTs can be used to store and ensure the originality of any form of digital information.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

DAO stands for Decentralized Autonomous Organization. A DAO is a digital network connected through blockchain and Smart Contracts. Beyond the predetermined actions executed by Smart Contracts, all DAO actions are determined according to DAO member voting. Technically Bitcoin qualifies as a DAO because it is under no centralized control. Everything that happens with Bitcoin is determined based upon the holders of Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cStaking\u201d is where token holders \u201cstake\u201d their tokens in exchange for rewards. A popular method for verifying blockchain transactions is \u201cproof-of-stake\u201d. This method consumes less energy than the \u201cproof-of-work\u201d method which involves a lot of computing power in order to solve complex mathematical equations. Staking is somewhat like putting assets in a fixed account. You are rewarded for leaving the tokens be for a period of time, and thus contributing to the proof-of-stake protocol. In many cases, the rewards are compounding, meaning you earn a percentage of gains on the initial staked tokens plus the accumulating staking rewards.<\/span><\/p>\n

BSC stands for BNB Smart Chain. It is the blockchain deployed by the world\u2019s top crypto exchange platform, Binance. Having released its own token, the Binance Coin or BNB in 2017, Binance has expanded to support deployment of independent blockchain, crypto, and even NFT projects on its ecosystem through BSC. BSC offers the benefit of using the eco-friendly \u201cproof-of-stake\u201d verification protocol, lower \u201cgas\u201d fees, and the possibility of integrating with other blockchains and DeFi projects, like MetaMask which supports Ethereum as well as BSC tokens. <\/span><\/p>\n

Web3 is a term given to the next major phase of online connectivity which is characterized by decentralization. Web1 is the general category given to the earliest stage of internet use which featured one-way engagement with websites, particularly for informational purposes. Web2 was primarily driven by mobile internet access. Web2 is characterized by interactivity, social media and ecommerce. Web3 is powered by blockchain which allows true decentralization, and supports personal privacy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many believe that the metaverse will feature more Web3 applications and platforms, and this is starting to take shape already. Metaverse supports powerful interactivity in the virtual reality space – a place where we engage, transact, and enjoy with the global community through multiple features and functionalities. The metaverse is considered to be the next major tech frontier.<\/span><\/p>\n
