# Welcome WEB3 frens

### What is DH3

A fresh new way of how data should be managed, processed, served, and owned. In web2 days in most cases, you were just a person who generated data but had no clue what was going on behind that, here we are trying to make a real difference by empowering all web3 users to participate, educate themself, and earn from it.
