Open Ecosystems

Definition

Open ecosystems are digital environments where many different participants can connect and interact freely using shared standards. These systems are characterized by open-source protocols, transparent governance, and a lack of centralized control, allowing for permissionless innovation and interoperability among various applications and services. In the blockchain space, open ecosystems foster collaboration and competition, driving the development of decentralized finance and Web3 technologies. They promote shared value creation and reduce barriers to entry for new developers and users.
