It would seem, unfortunately, that you’ve been given very bad information.
First up, some history: Nobody at the time called it web 2.0, it was just “web development” and “online business.” The 2.0 bullshit was all made up by hypebuilders [for personal profit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0#Trademark), and honestly until the crypto zealots dug up the grave, it was resting peacefully where it belonged.
“Web 3.0,” then, is not in any sense an evolution of web development or online business. In fact, it’s “Web 2.0” all over again — a made-up term that tries to establish a narrative where “what we have” will *inevitably* lead to “what I’m selling,” even though 99% of 3.0 tech is just 2.0 tech written by mediocre tech bros, usually with the sole purpose of enrichment for its creators.
The only thing about “web 3.0” that is real is the billions of dollars its instigators has [stolen from its victims.](https://web3isgoinggreat.com/charts/top)
