Web3 is the next generation of the internet that promotes decentralized protocols and aims to reduce dependency on large tech companies.
Layer 2 refers to a set of off-chain systems or separate blockchains built on top of layer 1s. A layer 1 network is the base layer, or the underlying infrastructure of a blockchain.
