Defining the Web3 Stack
summary
Defines Web3 by concrete wins and tools: Axie Infinity — 2M DAU and $500–$700M/month volume shows real play‑to‑earn money flows; DeFi liquidity like Curve $17B AAVE $28B Uniswap $386B traded demonstrates scale; humanitarian claims include 1.7B unbanked and countries with 90% (Lebanon) or 10,000% (Venezuela) inflation. Stack pieces are named and usable: Hardhat + Ethers.js + MetaMask, plus The Graph, Ceramic, Livepeer, IPFS, Arweave, Scaffold‑Eth and Solana/Anchor for building and indexing, with permanent storage and progressive decentralization.
