Eric Schmidt, the former CEO of Google, recently shared his thoughts on the emerging blockchain business. He claims that the future of Web 3.0, not cryptocurrency, fascinates him the most. He did, however, admit to investing a “small bit” of money in digital assets. Schmidt stated in an interview with CNBC:
“A new model [of the internet] where you as an individual [can] control your identity, and where you don’t have a centralized manager, is very powerful. It’s very seductive and it’s very decentralized. I remember that feeling when I was 25 that decentralized would be everything.”
Web 3.0 refers to the next-generation internet, in which services are based on decentralized blockchains. If Schmidt were to start his career as a software engineer today, he would focus on AI algorithms or Web 3.0, according to Schmidt.
