The Decentralized Web: Building the Next Internet (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789374597200)

We were promised freedom online, yet most of us rent our identities and communities from walled gardens. This book shows a different path: protocols over platforms, where decentralised web principles let people carry their data, reputation, and value wherever they go. Inside, you will learn the building blocks behind web3 basics without hype, from peer to peer coordination to decentralised storage and privacy protocols that protect ordinary users. It explains how dao governance and tokenised communities can fund public goods and reduce lock-in, and why open source development is the backbone of resilience. You will also see how internet ownership and digital identity change product design, customer relationships, and the everyday flows of work. Written for designers, founders, policy thinkers, and curious practitioners, it provides checklists, patterns, and plain-language models you can apply immediately. If you want to evaluate trade-offs, avoid centralising by accident, and build systems that respect human dignity, this guide gives you first principles and practical steps to begin.
