đī¸What are we doing?
We have a mission to provide value through dualistic principles, like yin and yang. Chaos and Order. Good and Evil. Without one, there is nothing. One exists, as does the other. There exists harmony.
Building a Decentralized Agora
At Decentragora, we are creating a decentralized collective that fosters innovation, collaboration, and growth in the Ethereum ecosystem. Drawing inspiration from ancient Greek agoras, we aim to empower a community that values environmental sustainability, privacy, and decentralization.
Our vision is to establish a self-sustaining ecosystem that offers membership tiers with various benefits and a range of services, such as coworking spaces, hacker houses, and immersive tech retreats. With our dApp we aims to foster innovation, collaboration, and growth through its unique membership model, on-chain reputation system, and comprehensive range of services.
Digital Infrastructure
On-chain Memberships: We have designed an innovative subscription model that utilizes non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for on-chain memberships, providing various benefits and services based on the member's subscription tier.
Anti-Sybil ID: We are working on an Anti-Sybil ID method to aggregate reputation scores across the EVM and reflect them on-chain, creating a robust Sybil detection method and a system for identifying credible on-chain entities while minimizing bias.
Oaths and dAgoric Pledges via the Attestation Station: We are creating a reputation scale and social graph out of on-chain declarations. We can use complete graph theory to measure the collective and our commitments. And graphQL to visualize the network. By building a reputation scale and social graph using on-chain declarations, we aim to create a comprehensive and transparent network that measures collective commitments and fosters trust.
ZKPTech: As privacy advocates, we're exploring zero-knowledge technology and other solutions to preserve user privacy without compromising security, including stealth addresses on Ethereum.
Physical Infrastructure
Coworking Spaces: Strategically located coworking spaces will provide members with a collaborative work environment, complete with high-speed internet, meeting rooms, and other amenities. Our first location/POC is in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Hacker Houses: Temporary housing options for members, particularly entrepreneurs and developers, will facilitate collaboration and accelerate innovation. We have a location planned for this near our first coworking space.
Tech Retreats: Immersive tech retreats in various locations worldwide will enable members to escape daily routines, focus on innovation, network, and achieve personal growth. Recently, we realized that a rural setting is perfect for this. And as such, we have dedicated the last few months to establishing a POC and researching ways to make tech gardens possible.
Future Endeavors
OPen Research and Public Goods: We aspire to power superpowered public goods through regenerative R&D and RPGF, enabling a more sustainable and open future for all.
Innovative Ethereum Standards and Improvement Proposals: We aim to leverage emerging Ethereum standards like ERC-4337 and delegate functions to develop 'smart accounts' that reduce the risk of users losing access to their digital assets.
Agriculture x Blockchain: In the long term, we plan to tap into opportunities at the intersection of agriculture and blockchain, as well as cutting-edge advancements in AI and cryptography.
By championing these initiatives, Decentragora is committed to becoming a driving force for sustainable and decentralized innovation in Alberta, Canada, and beyond. Through our digital and physical infrastructures, we are paving the way for a vibrant, forward-thinking community to thrive within the infinite garden of Ethereum.
