service is utilized and growing everyday. Consequently, it improves people’s lives.
Here are some potential examples of impacts of Web3 on multiple industries.
Real Estate
● Tokenization of Assets: Web3 enables the tokenization of real estate assets,
allowing properties to be divided into digital tokens that represent fractional
ownership. This opens up new investment opportunities for a wider range of

investors, including retail investors who may not have the capital to
purchase entire properties.
● Increased Liquidity: By tokenizing real estate assets, investors can buy and
sell real estate tokens on blockchain-based platforms, reducing the barriers
to entry and exit.
● Decentralized Property Management: Web3 enables decentralized property
management solutions where property owners and tenants can interact
directly through blockchain-based platforms. For more detail, smart
contracts automate rental agreements, maintenance requests, and
payments, streamlining property management processes.
E-commerce

e-commerce marketplaces without intermediaries, allowing buyers and
sellers to transact directly with each other. These increase transparency,
reduce fees, and eliminate the risk of platform manipulation or censorship.

● Tokenization of Products: Web3 facilitates the tokenization of physical and
digital products. Tokenization enables fractional ownership, peer-to-peer
trading, and enhanced liquidity for e-commerce goods and services.
● Token-Based Incentive Mechanisms: Web3 introduces token-based
incentive mechanisms such as loyalty rewards, referral programs, and
affiliate marketing campaigns in e-commerce platforms. Tokens can be
used to incentivize user engagement, promote brand loyalty, and drive
customer acquisition and retention efforts.
Healthcare
● Secure and Interoperable Health Records: Web3 enables the creation of
secure and interoperable health record systems built on blockchain
technology. Patient health records stored on the blockchain are encrypted,
immutable, and can be accessed securely by authorized healthcare
providers. Moreover, interoperable health record systems allow for
seamless sharing of patient data across different healthcare providers and
