# dCommerce ecosystem Although Boson Protocol stands at the core of Web3 Commerce, more components, services and applications are needed to create an end-to-end online commerce solution. The dCommerce Ecosystem serves this purpose. dCommerce is open, transparent, decentralized, minimally extractive and resistant to capture public infrastructure for commerce. This infrastructure is a result of unbundling the services provided by eCommerce into individually atomic functional Web3 artifacts that form a composable decentralized ecosystem for commerce. One of the benefits of Web3-native solutions is that, by virtue of composability, they behave as Lego, i.e. they can seamlessly connect with each other. Unlike Web2 platforms, where a stack is developed in a closed ecosystem, the openness of Web3 always allows for better, more effective, usable, and secure solutions. --- # 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.
