Wood highlighted how blockchain technology and Bitcoin are becoming more sophisticated. She thinks that Web3, the upcoming version of the internet based on these ideas, would have a big impact on a lot of different industries, such e-commerce and banking. 
Wood claims that this influence will be worldwide and available to everybody with an internet connection. She sees a significant role for artificial intelligence (AI) in Web3 development, especially in the gaming sector. 
Recent investments in the field by Sony and Polygon demonstrate the potential for intriguing new goods and experiences that could arise from the confluence of blockchain and AI.

According to Cathie Wood, there will be a bright future for Web3 with a legislative climate that encourages innovation and institutional adoption. As a result, Bitcoin may achieve unprecedented levels of success in the entertainment, e-commerce, and financial industries around the world. 
Nevertheless, there are obstacles on the way forward, such as the inherent volatility of the cryptocurrency market and the lack of clarity surrounding regulations.

Wood recognizes that there are obstacles, despite her confidence. Worldwide regulatory frameworks are in a constant state of flux, and unanticipated rules have the potential to hinder Web3’s global reach and innovation. 
Additionally, it is unclear how accurate cryptocurrency industry long-term price forecasts, such as Wood’s Bitcoin goal of $1.5 million by 2030, actually are.
