What Would Web4 Change For You?
This interactive page lets you pick your biggest internet frustrations and see exactly how trust-native infrastructure would address each one. It requires JavaScript to run.
Here's one example of how it works:
Spam & Fake Accounts
Today: Creating an account costs nothing. A spammer can create 10,000 accounts in an hour. Platforms play whack-a-mole with detection, but attackers just adapt.
With Web4: Every account requires a physical device with a security chip. Creating 10,000 fake accounts means buying 10,000 devices — $5 million+ in hardware. Spam isn't impossible, just economically irrational.
Mechanism: Hardware-bound identity + attention costs make spam more expensive than the return it generates.
The interactive page covers 6 frustrations with similar before/after comparisons:
- Spam & fake accounts — Hardware-bound identity makes bulk fake accounts cost $5M+ instead of nothing
- Reputation silos — Trust tensors make your reputation portable across platforms
- AI deception — AI plays by the same rules as humans; every action costs energy and builds (or loses) trust
- Platform power — Federated identity means no single company controls your digital life
- Fake reviews — Coherence scoring detects behavioral anomalies; each review costs energy
- No accountability — Karma carries consequences across lives; bad actors can't just reset
