About Harmony
https://open.harmony.one/harmony-in-2026-scaling-web3-via-zkp-dao
Harmony is an open and fast blockchain. Our mainnet runs Ethereum applications with 2-second transaction finality and 100 times lower fees. Our secure bridges offer cross-chain transfers with Ethereum, Binance and 3 other chains.
Looking forward the next 4 years, Harmony is scaling Web3 infrastructure of DeFi and NFT. And the next break through will come fundamental research. Our strategy is bringing the best results of Zero-Knowledge Proofs to production and decentralizing governance through thousands of DAOs.
Deepdive Concepts
Web3.0: Also known as the decentralized web, Web 3.0 is the third version of the Internet, which is an improvement over the current Web 2.0 Internet. The third version of the internet will have more transparency and boast massive content that will be accessible to all.
Example include: DeFi, NFT and DAO.
Layer 1: A Layer 1 blockchain is a set of solutions that improve the base protocol itself to make the overall system a lot more scalable. … Examples of operating Layer 1 blockchains include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Litecoin and Avalanche.
Harmony is also a Layer 1.
DAO: A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is an organization represented by rules encoded as a computer program that is transparent, controlled by the organization members and not influenced by a central government. In future, it can replace companies or countries.
Dao replace company or even country.
There are many interesting DAO examples:
- Research DAO: composed of professors, where they have the freedom to pursue their individual work and research
- Africa DAO: It helps people and countires in Africa to learn more about blockchain. There are also similar DAOs like France DAO.
- Liquidity DAO: a market making DAO with trading, where people have a lot more freedom.
