Full Story
You’ve heard of Web3 domains – but have you heard of Web3 native websites?
Most people use Web3 domain names to make their wallet’s ‘send to’ address easier to remember/communicate.
(e.g. send to ‘web3daily.crypto’ instead of ‘0xb794f5ea0ba39494ce839613fffba74279579268’)
But turns out, some folks are actually building websites using these domain names.
Problem is, you can’t find them using Web2 search engines and traditional browsers won’t load them without first being reconfigured.
(So they may as well not exist).
That was until two days ago, when web3compass.net launched as the worlds first Web3 search engine.
The developers even figured out how to get the Web3 sites listed in each search result to load on a traditional browser (no reconfiguring needed).
Very cool!
…but as with most early products – it’s janky as hell.
The site looks like a monkey designed it and the search results are all over the place.
(But, hey – if you’re not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late!)
Now, here’s the opportunity:
There’re only 40,000 Web3 native websites in existence right now.
If you go and make a page worth visiting, you could quite easily become the proud owner of the most visited Web3 site in the world
