Web3 is the next evolution of the internet—decentralized, transparent, and user-owned. While it started with cryptocurrencies, Web3 now includes blockchain-based apps, smart contracts, and decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. In Sri Lanka, understanding these technologies can open new career and innovation paths for developers, entrepreneurs, and even artists.
Beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, Web3 can be used for secure voting systems, transparent supply chains, and identity verification tools. A local tea exporter can use blockchain to track the journey of tea leaves from plantation to port. Musicians can sell music via NFTs, earning directly from fans without intermediaries. These are practical examples already being explored around the world—and possible here in Sri Lanka too.
For developers, learning about Ethereum, Solidity, and DApps can give you a head start in a fast-growing field. Even for non-coders, platforms like Thirdweb, Zora, or Mirror make blockchain accessible for creators and small businesses. The global tech industry is shifting toward decentralization, and Sri Lanka can benefit from early adoption.
