Despite the great number of possible uses, many challenges to a decentralized future remain.
Many self-described decentralized apps are only partially distribute. In truth, the front end is often hosted on the cloud and blockchain access to them is subtle.
Blockchain networks themselves can become centralized if they use Amazon Web Services or a similar corporate entity's computing power.
Another roadblock on the way to progress might be Ethereum's transactional fees and scalability. It is responsible for many Web 3.0 projects, but has extremely slow transactions rates, scalability has been an issue since its inception as a decentralized blockchain, and fees can be as high as 40 cents per transaction. In order coax the Metaverse into work for everyone, fixes to these issues need to happen before things take off.
What we have to do to get there
With the emergence of new platforms, it's apparent that we are seeing the groundwork for Web 3.0, which will be a major milestone for the internet.
New systems such as the internet computer offer a decentralized and scalable platform with no scaling, speed, or fee issues- allowing dapps to build on this secure model for intensive experiences.
With the vision of Web 3.0 having everything hosted on-chain, there can be no gatekeepers or downtime. With increased authenticity in web 3.0 experiences will come notably better performance than what's possible with legacy architecture.
One major downfall to AI is that it typically has an end goal in mind. Such as creative marketing, economic gain, or other such motives.
This causes there to be a loss of integrity and representation for the end user, as creative marketing and similar industries only care about their own bottom line.
