Aggregation May Unlock the Unification of Web3
Post# of 119
Aggregation could be the breakthrough Web3 needs to work as smoothly as the internet does today. At this time, blockchain networks are stuck in isolated systems, limiting liquidity and making it harder for users to access everything in one place. Much like the early internet networks that couldn’t interconnect until protocols like TCP/IP unified them, Web3 faces similar challenges. Many experts believe aggregation could be the solution.
A big issue for Web3 is that it lacks a cross-chain settlement layer, causing each blockchain to function like a separate ecosystem where assets, data, and liquidity are locked away. An aggregation layer breaks down these walls so that blockchains can work together. This allows users to have a single profile and wallet to access any Web3 network seamlessly.
One area where aggregation has the potential to make great changes is in decentralized finance (DeFi). Currently, DeFi liquidity is split across various blockchains, thus forcing developers to work with specific chains and users to deal with complex setups. Solutions like bridges and wrapped tokens exist, but they are costly, inefficient, and sometimes risky. Fortunately, aggregation could solve these issues, to ensure there are easier cross-chain transactions and create a more accessible DeFi system. Unified yield farming, easier token swaps, and cross-chain arbitrage could all become more efficient and safer.
Tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) could also benefit from aggregation. Currently, tokenized assets are limited to individual networks which restricts their use and value. A cross-chain settlement layer would allow these assets to interact across blockchains, creating a true market. For instance, assets tokenized on Ethereum could work with other networks, expanding liquidity and making it easier to own a piece of diverse assets.
Web3 gaming and decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePINs) stand to benefit from aggregation as well. In gaming, players could transfer assets and profiles across platforms, making digital ownership more versatile. Furthermore, DePINs would see lower costs and smoother data-sharing by breaking down the barriers between different systems, leading to easier collaboration.
Momentum for aggregation is growing, with leaders in blockchain pushing for solutions. Events like the upcoming Aggregation Summit highlight this trend, showing the industry’s commitment to solving these issues. A Web3 ecosystem that is fully connected would allow for faster, cheaper, and more secure transactions across chains, opening up more opportunities for developers and users.
With aggregation, Web3 has the potential to evolve into a seamless, borderless digital economy. This would create greater accessibility and interconnectivity across all platforms, similar to the internet we experience today.
As Web3 becomes more unified, it is likely to be adopted by a lot more companies just like NextPlat Corp. (NASDAQ: NXPL) (NASDAQ: NXPLW) since its user base will inevitably expand at an explosive rate.
