TL;DR

Are you tired of navigating through endless knowledge silos, each confined to a particular community or platform? Well, we've got some exciting news! We're working on breaking down those walls and building a cross-community knowledge base and Interest Graph for Token Engineering (TE) and web3. With the help of a graph database and curation service protocol, we're creating a token engineering knowledge commons (TEKC) that will benefit everyone involved. And we're doing it in collaboration with the Token Engineering Commons and Meem, as a continuation of an ongoing partnership!

In more detail

The grant will be used to develop a proof-of-concept for the TEKC, which will include an API wrapper around a graph database, a community curation protocol for publishing into it, a front-end for querying the knowledge base, and research on mechanism design for managing the commons.

The TEKC will serve as a token engineering research Schelling Point, a single point of contact for TE education and development, benefiting the communities by promoting coordination, highlighting TE experts/practitioners, and reducing the redundancy of efforts. This project is a continuation of our ongoing partnership with the Token Engineering Commons around the curation service, with Meem joining us as a tech partner to connect communities. We’ve already started work with Meem on a community curation Discord bot (https://build.meem.wtf/products/tweets), which we intend to adapt to the TEKC’s needs!

Overall, we believe that the TECK will become a catalyst for growth and development for the next generation of token engineers.
