The Cypher Lexicon is a compendium for the vast digital world aka the metaverse.

Our goal with the Lexicon— allow anyone to easily access a knowledge base designed to familiarize and guide users who seek to become a technologist or those who wish to build, use or expand the next iteration of the web.

To wrap your head around the system and the ideas presented within, you'll be required to read a fair amount of material. There are ways to implement what you've learned and learn from a more hands on approach as you get further through the material.
