Web3 is the latest transformation of the World Wide Web, centred on public blockchains, Crypto tokens, and an ideology of decentralisation. Defining Web3 presents the state of the art in socio-cultural and economic research from leading scholars in the field of cryptocurrencies and blockchains.

Walking the line between both enthusiasts and critics, the authors analyse the token economy's messy complications, excesses, dangers, and tensions, and how they might play out for the future of the Internet.Bringing together researchers, artists, and organisational designers to explore Web3's potential as a progressive platform for creative social coordination, this uniquely experimental volume tackles the deceptively simple question, 'What is Web3?' and imagines where it might take us next.…
