Hiroki Kotabe

Quick Take

  • In the web3 “Building Blocks” (W3bb) series, we dive into the mechanics and developments behind major areas of Web3 as part of a larger effort toward a general categorization system of Web3
  • Here, we look at storage, a relatively established area of Web3, and wireless networks, a rapidly emerging new use case for blockchain technology 
  • Our main analytical method is category representation by exemplars – here, we examine IPFS as an exemplar case of Web3 storage and Helium as an exemplar case of Web3 wireless networks
