Frequently Asked Questions

Minting and gas
Gas is required to issue any transaction on the ChainIt Approval Network. When you upload a document you are effectively minting the document on the ChainIt Approval Network. This will require gas. All new users receive some free gas. Eventually you will be able to purchase gas using our coin – coming soon!
Why do you need my email address?

What does Web1, Web2 and Web3 mean?
The Internet began in its infancy during the early 1990s and Web1 refers to those early days where websites were static pages with little or no interaction.
Web2 refers to the uptake of HTML5 where websites to date are interactive, dynamic and can behave as applications. However these interactions take place between you and centralized servers for example Facebook and Instagram servers. As such, you place your trust with these centralized services.
Web3 is where you can optionally participate as part of a network, placing your trust with the network rather than with a centralized authority.
For example you could be part of the Bitcoin network by hosting your own node.
ChainIt is Web3
