# Preface

Welcome to read SmartMall's white paper, which will show you SmartMall's core concept, technical architecture and our new vision for the future digital ecosystem. The rise of Web3 has redefined the status of users in the digital world, providing everyone with more fair, transparent and open opportunities to participate. As a decentralized application (DApp) aggregation platform, SmartMall is committed to breaking the barriers of the traditional Internet, helping more people cross the threshold of Web2 and Web3, and working together to create a new era of digital economy where everyone shares, governs and wins together.

Whether you are a participant in the traditional Internet world or an explorer of the blockchain ecosystem, we hope that this white paper can provide you with enough thinking and inspiration, and lead you to witness and participate in this epoch-making change. Let us walk into SmartMall and embrace the infinite possibilities of the digital future together.
