The new special issue of the Journal of Digital Media and Interaction (Vol. 8, No. 19) is now available.

This special issue on Web3, guest-edited by Ana Patrícia Oliveira, Liliana Vale Costa, and Salomé Azevedo, presents a curated selection of extended and revised papers originally presented at the WEB3: Tokenization, Technology and Culture Conference, hosted by the University of Aveiro, Portugal.

Within this context, the current issue emerges at a decisive moment to critically analyze and discuss the real impacts of Web3 technologies and their cultural ecosystems, not only in relation to public perception, but also in how they are reshaping the behaviors of creators, users, institutions, and digital artifacts themselves. The selected contributions span domains such as Web3 software quality, decentralized scientific data privacy, Health Web3 cybersecurity, blockchain-based digital identity, and NFT-driven Digital Twins.
