Are we on the verge of a digital revolution that will empower individuals and build a fairer world, or are we merely paving the way for new forms of control and inequality? What World Are We Creating? The Impact of Web3 on Society and Well-Being takes you on an illuminating journey through the complex world of Web3, exploring its potential to redefine everything from finance and governance to healthcare and democracy. With a critical yet hopeful lens, Henrik Beyer examines whether this new wave of decentralized technology can truly deliver on its promises—or if it risks replicating the very power structures it seeks to dismantle. This book is rooted in Henrik Beyer’s intensive research conducted between 2022 and 2024, driven by insights and discussions explored in the Cryptobeyer Newsletter, which continues to provide thought-provoking analysis on the intersection of technology and society. These years of focused research lay the foundation for a deep, nuanced exploration of how Web3 technologies intersect with power, governance, and the future of digital well-being. Drawing on real-world case studies, historical parallels, and thorough investigations, this book unpacks the societal implications of Web3—from the rise of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) to blockchain’s role in addressing global challenges like financial inclusion and environmental sustainability. Written for tech enthusiasts, innovators, policymakers, and curious readers alike, What World Are We Creating? is more than just a guide—it’s a call to action. Whether you’re navigating the complexities of decentralized finance, exploring the ethical dilemmas of digital governance, or questioning blockchain’s impact on our well-being, this book equips you with the insight to grasp these technologies’ profound influence on our lives and societies. Bold, thought-provoking, and deeply relevant, What World Are We Creating? challenges us to rethink how we build a digital future that serves everyone. With the stakes higher than ever, the choices we make today will shape the society we leave behind for future generations.
