@DEVLUTO

@BurhanOps

Big thanks !

He shared a lot 🫡❤️
If you're curious about Web3 join his channel he shares a lot of resources 🔥🔥

@DEVLUTO

I saw some of my friends beat my lil bot 🫠

So I had to improve her , fifi is now at depth 14 the beginning (taught her some openings too 😁😎), and endgame UpTo 18 since her endgame was trash ( at least that's what I noticed ) ..

Now Fifi bot Gon crush anyone in her way😊 and don't think that the free pieces are free you'll get punished for that 😊😈

Another thing that I noticed was that she takes a lot of time while thinking (technically calculating😂) so I made that she finna store the position caches which will help her improve her time management

Fixed the timer and the chat in friends section (create a room and play with your friends too that will help ya climb the leaderboard)
Added highlighting for past moves since my friend requested it

Good luck 😁

Give it a go
Anybody who wins against her please send a screenshot in this comment box..

✅ DAY 1/30

Why Web3 Even Exists????

Alright so today wasn’t about coins, trading, or getting rich.
It was about understanding why blockchain/Web3 was created in the first place.

And honestly… it makes way more sense now.

🌍 The Problem With the Current Internet (Web2)

Right now the internet is centralized.

That means:

Your data = owned by companies
Your money = controlled by banks
Your accounts = can be deleted anytime
Apps = run on company servers

Examples:

• Instagram can ban you = you lose everything
• Bank can freeze your account
• Game company can delete your skins/items

Basically:
👉 We use platforms
👉 They own everything
We’re trusting middlemen with our identity, money, and digital life.

🔗 So What Does Web3 Change?

Web3 is about removing the middleman.
Instead of:

* You -> Company -> Other Person
It becomes:
* You -> Blockchain -> Other Person

No company in between controlling it.

🧠 What Makes Blockchain Special?

Here’s what I learned today:

1️⃣ It’s Decentralized

Blockchain runs on thousands of computers (nodes) around the world.

No single company owns it.
No single server can shut it down.

So instead of:
"Trust us, we have your data”
It’s:
“The network verifies everything automatically”

2️⃣ It’s Trustless (But Not Sketchy 😭)

Trustless doesn’t mean you can’t trust it.
It means you don’t NEED to trust a person or company.

You trust:

• Code
• Math
• Cryptography
• Rules are enforced by the system itself.


3️⃣ It Solves the “Double Spending Problem”

Digital money is easy to copy.

If I send you a picture, I still have it.
So what stops me from sending the same digital coin to 2 people?

Blockchain keeps a public ledger that everyone agrees on.
Once a transaction is recorded, the network confirms:

“Yep, he already spent that. Can’t use it again.”

Problem solved without a bank.


4️⃣ Transparency Is Built In

Most blockchains are public.

That means:

Anyone can see transactions

Nobody can secretly edit records

History is permanent


It’s like a Google Doc: 👀 Everyone can see
✍️ Nobody can secretly rewrite history



💡 My Biggest Realization Today

Web3 isn’t just “crypto”.

It’s about:

•Owning your digital assets
•Controlling your identity
•Apps that can’t be shut down easily
Money that doesn’t need a bank
Crypto is just one use case.
Blockchain is the real technology shift.



📝 Things That Confused Me a Bit

(keeping it real)

How the network agrees on the “correct” version of transactions

How miners/validators are chosen (I’ll learn this later)

How fees are calculated


Adding these to my “learn soon” list.

✅ That this is WAY deeper than just coins

We’re building understanding first.
Code comes soon.



Day 2 tomorrow ...how blocks, hashes, and chains actually work. 🔗💻

#WEB3CHALLENGE

@DEVLUTO

Day 1 Summary — Introduction to Web3

Today I learned why Web3 and blockchain technology were created.

The current internet (Web2) is centralized, meaning companies control user data, digital accounts, and online services. This creates problems because platforms can delete accounts, banks can freeze money, and users do not fully own their digital assets.

Web3 aims to solve this by using blockchain technology, which removes the need for middlemen. Instead of trusting a company, users interact directly through a decentralized network.

Blockchain is important because it is:

Decentralized – It runs on many computers worldwide, not one central server
Trustless – Users trust the system’s code and cryptography rather than a person or company
Secure – Transactions cannot be easily changed once recorded
Transparent – Transaction history can be viewed publicly


One major problem blockchain solves is the double spending problem, which prevents digital money from being copied and spent more than once.

@DEVLUTO

NEW WEEK, CLEAN SLATE, FRESH ENERGY!!!!💪💪💪🔥

Don’t forget

WORDS HAVE POWER

Especially the ones you say to yourself. Speak like someone who believes better days are coming, because your mind is always listening. Hype yourself up, be kind with your thoughts, and watch how your week starts to shift. Monday is different when your words are on your side.

@DEVLUTO

Thankyou ONYX ❤️

@DEVLUTO

✅ DAY 2/30 — How Blockchain Actually Works

Yesterday was about why Web3 exists.
Today was about how blockchain actually works under the hood.

And ngl… this part made everything feel more real.

🧱 First: What Is a “Block”?

A blockchain is literally made of blocks connected together.

Each block contains:

• A list of transactions (who sent what to who)
• A timestamp
• A special code called a hash
• The hash of the previous block
=>So a block is basically a page of records in a digital notebooks.

🔐 What Is a Hash?

This is the magic part.

A hash is like a digital fingerprint.

It’s created using a math function that turns data into a long string of letters and numbers.

Example (not real, just idea):

Input: "LUTO sent 2 ETH"
Hash: 8f3a9b21c77d4e5f...

Here’s what makes hashes powerful:
🔹 If you change ANYTHING in the data…

Even changing 1 letter creates a completely different hash....
That means if someone tries to edit a transaction, the hash changes and everyone instantly knows something is wrong.

⛓️ How Blocks Connect (The “Chain” Part)

Each block stores: 👉 Its own hash
👉 The previous block’s hash
So it looks like this:

Block 1 = Hash A
Block 2 = Hash B + Hash A
Block 3 = Hash C + Hash B

If someone tries to change Block 1:

Hash A changes
That breaks Block 2 (because it stores old Hash A)
That breaks Block 3
That breaks EVERY block after it
To fake one transaction, you’d have to redo the entire chain on thousands of computers at once.
Basically impossible.

🌍 Why This Makes Blockchain Secure

Because the chain is:

• Linked by hashes
• Stored on many computers (nodes)
• Constantly being verified
• No one can secretly edit history.
• You can add new blocks…
But you can’t go back and change old ones.

🧠 Analogy That Helped Me

Imagine a notebook where:
Every page depends on the page before it
If you rip out or edit one page, all the page numbers get messed up
Thousands of people have the same notebook and compare it constantly
If your version doesn’t match theirs = rejected.
That’s basically blockchain.

⚡ So What Happens When You Send Crypto?

1️⃣ You request a transaction
2️⃣ The network checks if you actually have the funds
3️⃣ The transaction joins other transactions in a block
4️⃣ The block gets a hash
5️⃣ It’s added to the chain
6️⃣ The whole network updates their copy

Now it’s permanent.


💡 Biggest Realizations Today

• Blockchain security comes from math + linking blocks together

• You can’t change old data without breaking the whole chain

This is why people say blockchain is tamper resistant
It’s not “unhackable”
It’s just insanely hard to cheat the system.

• investopedia.com -> Helped with hash explanation


🚀 Day 2 Complete

Now I understand: ✅ What a block is
✅ What a hash is
✅ How blocks link together
✅ Why blockchain data is hard to change

#WEB3CHALLENGE

@DEVLUTO

Day 2 Summary
How Blockchain Works
Today I learned how blockchain is structured and why it is secure.
A blockchain is made of blocks that store transaction data. Each block contains a hash, which is a unique digital fingerprint created from the block’s information. Even a small change in the data creates a completely different hash.
Blocks are connected in order, and each block also stores the hash of the previous block. This creates a chain. If someone tries to change an older block, its hash changes, which breaks all the blocks after it. This makes tampering with past data extremely difficult.
Because copies of the blockchain exist on many computers around the world, the network can quickly detect any fake or altered version.

✅ DAY 3/30

Who Runs the Blockchain?

(Nodes, Miners & Validators)

So far I learned what blockchain is and how blocks connect.

But today’s big question was:
If there’s no company in charge… who actually runs the system?
Turns out .. regular people and computers around the world.


🌍 Meet the NODES

A node is just a computer connected to the blockchain network.
But not just watching ,
It stores a full copy of the blockchain and helps verify information. Thousands of these nodes exist worldwide.
That means:

• No single server controls everything
• No one can secretly change the records
• If one node goes offline, the network keeps running
• This is what makes blockchain decentralized.

Think of nodes as: 🧠 The memory of the blockchain
👀 The watchers checking everything is correct


✅ What Do Nodes Actually Do?
Nodes:
•Store the entire blockchain history
•Check if transactions follow the rules
•Share information with other nodes
•Reject fake or invalid transactions

So when someone sends crypto, nodes help decide:
“Is this legit or not?”

⛏️ Then Who Adds New Blocks?

This is where miners and validators come in. Different blockchains use different systems to choose who adds the next block.

🧱 System 1: MINERS (Proof of Work – used by Bitcoin)

Miners are special nodes that:
Compete to solve a very hard math puzzle ,The first one to solve it earns the right to add the next block, They get rewarded with crypto, This system is called Proof of Work (PoW).
Why make it hard? Because it prevents cheating, To fake the blockchain, you’d need more computing power than the rest of the world combined. Basically impossible.
Downside: ⚡ Uses a LOT of electricity.


🌱 System 2: VALIDATORS (Proof of Stake – used by Ethereum now)
Ethereum switched to a different system called Proof of Stake (PoS).
Instead of solving puzzles, validators:
Lock up (stake) their own crypto as a deposit, Are randomly chosen to confirm new blocks, Get rewards for being honest, Lose money if they try to cheat...
So instead of “work hard with computers,”
it’s “risk your own money to prove you’re honest.”
Much more energy efficient.

🧠 Why This Matters
Because this is how blockchain stays:
🔐 Secure
⚖️ Fair
🌍 Decentralized
No boss. No company. No central server.
Just: Nodes verifying
Miners or validators adding blocks
Math enforcing the rules



🔗 Resources I Used Today

🎥 YouTube
• simple explained — Proof of Work vs Proof of Stake
• Finematics — Blockchain Nodes Explained

📖 Websites
• ethereum.org -> Proof of Stake section
• bitcoin.org -> How mining works


🚀 Day 3 Complete
Now I understand: ✅ What nodes are
✅ How transactions are verified
✅ The difference between miners and validators
✅ Proof of Work vs Proof of Stake (basics)
This system is lowkey genius fr.

@DEVLUTO

Day 3 Summary — Who Runs the Blockchain

Today I learned that blockchains are run by nodes, miners, and validators ... not a company.

Nodes are computers around the world that store a copy of the blockchain and check that transactions follow the rules. They help keep the system decentralized and secure.
To add new blocks, networks use different systems:

• Miners (Proof of Work) :solve complex math problems to add blocks and earn rewards. This is how Bitcoin works, but it uses a lot of energy.
• Validators (Proof of Stake): lock up their own crypto and are chosen to confirm blocks. They earn rewards for being honest and lose money if they cheat. This is what Ethereum uses now

Blockchain stays secure and decentralized because thousands of computers verify transactions, and special participants (miners or validators) add new blocks using systems designed to prevent cheating.
