The Internet Computer blockchain is a globally accessible, affordable, and scalable blockchain, whose developers and users can be found all around the world. Web3 affords us the opportunity to rebuild the systems that we have in place today, in order to create a more fair and transparent future.

Tokens create powerful incentives that can help new services and ventures succeed. But blockchain is not just about "success" in the conventional sense. The world faces many difficulties, including climate change, pollution, war, oppression, economic inequality, and fake news. This is your chance to build something that makes a difference, in whatever field you choose.
