-## Decentralized Web Nodes (DWNs)
-
-[Decentralized Web Nodes](https://identity.foundation/decentralized-web-node/spec/) (DWNs) are servers
-that store a user's data and provide an interface for others to interact with it.
-These interactions could be a simple read to view a user's worlds, or more complex writes to add
-comments or send encrypted friend requests.
-
-Additionally, DWNs are built on a CRDT that will sync data with other DWNs.
-You can make use of a remote cloud-hosted DWN, while at the same time running your own local DWN to keep a backup of your data.

+A DID host is a server that remotely hosts a DID and provides convenient access to it.
