The Graph is pleased to announce the launch of Geo Genesis, a revolutionary application that organizes knowledge on web3 rails. Anyone, regardless of their level of technical experience, is able to participate in the creation and management of “Spaces” in Geo Genesis. These “Spaces” are collaborative hubs that are meant for organizing, sharing, and governing knowledge.
It was with the intention of facilitating knowledge in web3 that The Graph was established. The foundation has been successful in turning its goal into a reality after years of technical refinement, that includes the establishment of the GRC-20 data standard, which was only recently established. Geo Genesis, which was just launched by The Graph, makes it possible for a new wave of decentralized apps to be developed that are built upon knowledge rather than simply assets.
Data and information for the decentralized internet are derived from the Graph, which serves as the source. The Graph, which was the first decentralized data marketplace and was responsible for the introduction and standardization of subgraphs, has become the method that web3 offers for searching and accessing blockchain data.
Subgraphs for decentralized applications (dapps) have been developed by tens of thousands of developers across more than eighty blockchains since the platform’s inception in 2018. These blockchains include Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Polygon, Celo, Fantom, Gnosis, and Avalanche.
The need for data in web3 is expected to continue to increase, and as a result, The Graph is entering a new era with a more expanded vision that includes new data services and query languages. This will ensure that the decentralized protocol can accommodate any use case, both on the present day and in the future.
Introducing Geo Genesis
This web application, known as Geo Genesis, is designed to be user-friendly and provides users with the ability to build and manage knowledge directly on The Graph. Essentially, Geo makes it possible to enable Spaces, which are collaborative hubs that allow people to congregate, share, and govern knowledge. These spaces encourage cooperation and make it possible to exercise decentralized governance at a large scale.
They come equipped with governance tools that are built in and make use of the modular Aragon OSx framework, which guarantees that communities can successfully establish a consensus. As time goes on, every space will eventually have governance procedures that can be customized. These processes will provide the foundation for knowledge that can be reused and linked in a manner that is consistent with the concepts of verifiability, openness, and composability.
Due to the fact that Geo was developed with accessibility in mind, it is not only useful by developers but also by anybody else. For this reason, it is now possible for everyone to make a contribution to the organizing of information on web3.
Knowledge Graphs Are the Core of Web3
As Yaniv Tal, co-founder of The Graph and founder of Geo, has pointed out, web3 is ultimately about information, and the introduction of Geo Genesis symbolizes the realization of a decentralized platform where knowledge is structured into dynamic, linked knowledge graphs. This is a significant achievement. Through the creation of a uniform framework that encourages interoperability, flexibility, and composability of information across decentralized applications, the newly published GRC-20 standard makes it possible for knowledge graphs to be used in web3. This framework also makes it possible for dynamic knowledge spaces to develop in accordance with the requirements of the community.
What’s Next?
Early access to Geo Genesis is being made available, and it will have a default governance process in order to empower communities. Editors and members make up the first level of governance. Members are participants who can help contribute to a space, while editors are the experts who vote in governance.
At this point, individuals have the ability to make requests for invitations in order to get early access to join and to build initial spaces. Anyone is able to browse the knowledge graph to view what has been added to it and how it was governed during the process. An initial group of editors is now curating Crypto News in order to demonstrate how knowledge graphs can be used to better efficiently arrange news items and the information that are linked with them.
The ability for communities to fully customize their governance frameworks will become available to them as the platform continues to develop. In order to define the next phase of decentralized knowledge sharing, early adopters are urged to explore Spaces and participate in development.
