Web3 Primitive

Definition

A Web3 primitive is a fundamental, foundational building block within the decentralized internet ecosystem. These core components, often represented by decentralized protocols or smart contract functionalities, provide essential services such as secure data storage, identity verification, or value exchange without reliance on centralized authorities. They serve as the basic elements upon which more complex decentralized applications and services are constructed. Understanding these primitives is key to comprehending the underlying architecture of Web3.
