--- title: ETHBratislava description: Uncompromising Web3 Communication at Scale hide_table_of_contents: true hide_title: true og:image_subtitle: Events --- import { Box, EventBanner, EventInfo, EventAbout, EventProfileList, EventCTA, InputCTASection, EventHeader, Grid, } from '@site/src/components/mdx' Waku is a suite of generalised messaging protocols aiming to be the communication standard for the decentralised web. It enables private and secure human-to-human, machine-to-machine, and human-to-machine communication without reliance on centralised intermediaries. Messaging through Waku is possible from one-to-one to many-to-many.
Waku serves as the communications layer of the Logos tech stack. Alongside the trustless agreement layer, Nomos, and the storage layer, Codex, it is one of the Logos Collective's foundational projects.
Motive: Today's internet is increasingly controlled by a small number of tech giants. Google, Amazon, Meta, and a few others dictate what we see and with whom we can communicate. Their influence is almost limitless, and their actions shape global public opinion and even geopolitics.
To anyone that understands the internet's present architecture, this outcome should be expected. The centralised entities through which we communicate have privileged access to reams of data that we, as internet users, produce daily, presenting an opportunity for the kind of surveillance that was once confined to the pages of science-fiction literature. Thinking that the most powerful commercial and political institutions would not leverage this would be naive.
Yet, it doesn't have to be this way. Advances in cryptography, peer-to-peer networking, and decentralised technologies provide an alternate path forward.

Want to see how Waku works?

Come over to meet Waku Solution Engineer and listen to his workshop about the standard for web3 communication !

In this talk, he will introduce you to Waku - a family of robust, censorship-resistant communication protocols designed to enable privacy-focused messaging for web3 apps. He’ll explain the history (Do you remember Whisper?), current state and what you can expect in the future. He’ll talk about how Waku fits into web3 stack, how to leverage it for your dapp and explore cool use cases we’ve seen and would like to see.

Date: 10th of May
Time: 13:00 -14:00 } />
At the same day, on 10th of May, at 11:00-12:00, you will be also able to listen to Vaclav at the discussion panel on "Privacy Solutions in Blockchain"- alongside Ivan Homoliak (TU Brno) , Tibor Tribus (Maya-zk) and dc.builder (Worldcoin).
