What if you owned the Web?

〞

Web3 is an internet

owned by users and builders

orchestrated with tokens.

– Chris Dixon

Web3

  • Social Media
  • Applications
  • Corporations monetise data
  • Centralised
  • Hosted privately
  • Manually programmed

Web2  vs  Web3

  • Metaverse (VR & AR)
  • Distributed Apps (dApps)
  • Users monetise data (NFT)
  • Distributed
  • Public blockchain
  • AI driven

pragma solidity >=0.4.16 <0.9.0;

contract HelloWorld {
    string public message = "Hello World!";
}

Smart Contract: HelloWorld v1

pragma solidity ^0.8.10;

contract HelloWorld {
    string message = "Hello world!";

    function set(string memory _msg) public {
        message = _msg;
    }

    function get() public view returns (string memory) {
        return message;

Smart Contract: HelloWorld v2

        address payable sender = msg.sender;
        uint256 value = msg.value;

address player = address(0);


string msg = unicode"🚀";

function mint(address to, uint256 amount) public {

# Setup
> npm install @openzeppelin/contracts
> npx hardhat compile

# Deploy
> npx hardhat run --network localhost deploy.js

# Stop
> npx hardhat clean

Setup: GLDToken ERC20

// scripts/deploy.js

const GLDToken = await ethers.getContractFactory("GLDToken");

// execute transaction
const token = await GLDToken.deploy('1000');

// wait for transaction to be part of the blockchain
await token.deployed();

Deploy Script: GLDToken ERC20

// GLDToken.js

const token = await ethers.getContractAt("GLDToken", player);
await token.balanceOf(player);
// 10

await token.transfer(defenseOftheAncients2, 3);
await token.balanceOf(player);
// 7

Usage: GLDToken ERC20

Web3 is all

about tokens!

Ethereum and smarts contracts for JavaScript Devs

By Gerard Sans

Ethereum and smarts contracts for JavaScript Devs

In this talk I will present the state of the art for web3, decentralized architectures and tools. You will learn how simple it is to create your own decentralised app using your current coding skills and JavaScript! Ethereum is also the platform that runs smart contracts: applications that run exactly as programmed without any possibility of downtime, censorship, fraud or third party interference. Join to learn all the potential for Ethereum blockchain!
