# Introduction to Destra Network **Destra Network: Building a Decentralized World!** > Decentralized solutions for the decentralized web (Web3). In a digital landscape reliant on centralized servers, DNS, and ICANN, governance falls into the hands of corporate giants and governments. Privacy breaches occur at every turn, censorship runs rampant, and downtimes are all too frequent. In this era, Destra aims to be the beacon of decentralization with our truly decentralized solutions. At Destra, your privacy takes center stage, and the specter of censorship fades away. Say goodbye to downtimes and embrace a future where everyone holds the reins. Destra Network believes in the vision of a truly decentralized internet, where decentralized solutions are paramount. It's been a decade since Vitalik conceived Ethereum, which led to the outbreak of decentralized applications (dApps). Today, the entire crypto space is propelled by these dApps, from Decentralized Exchanges to protocols. However, despite their prefix "decentralized," it's unfortunate that they all run on the centralized Web2 infrastructure. The path to decentralization saw exponential growth in the first few years after the launch of smart contracts and dApps. However, the growth curve of decentralization progressively flattened due to countless hurdles faced by projects attempting to decentralize. Today, every platform on Ethereum or any other ecosystem relies on one RPC or another to connect to the Ethereum network through a node. All these connections depend on the centralized Web2 infrastructure, from the domain name for the RPC to the servers running these JSON requests. With Destra, we aim to offer a suite of services that make true decentralization possible. For example, you can use our decentralized domain name for your RPC, regaining control of the domain name previously held by ICANN, a centralized, closed organization essentially controlled by governments. Our three main pillars, "Destra GPU Network," "Destra Cloud Solution," and "AI Computing Solutions," have been elevated to the next level by decentralizing all centralized aspects of them. This achievement is made possible through Smart Contracts, IPFS, Destra Nodes, Destra ENS Gateway, Decentralized DNS, Distributed GPU/TPU network all of which converge to power the Destra network. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
