Beyond Trust: How Web3 Enables Trustless Systems for a Decentralized World

Building global connections with kindness and openness; friends across borders.
Imagine a world where we don't need to trust anyone to make sure that everything is working correctly online. Sounds interesting, right? That's what Web3 and trustless systems are all about.
Let's consider a trustless system in the form of a decentralized lemonade stand. Imagine you and your friends want to start a lemonade stand, but you all live far apart. With a trustless system using Web3, you can create a decentralized lemonade stand that works without any of you needing to trust each other.
Here's how it works:
In this example, you don't need to trust each other to share the profits fairly because the smart contract enforces the rules automatically. No one can cheat or change the rules without everyone else knowing.
This trustless system allows you and your friends to run the lemonade stand together, even if you're far away from each other and can't meet in person.

Consensus is reached in a decentralized fashion which was completely new to me as so far it was achieved by a central entity’s approval .
