What is KNN3?If Web3 and blockchain technology have a common criticism, it is that data is extremely hard to make sense of. It sometimes feels as though developers speak a completely different language as they discuss their findings on Etherscan or any other block explorer, and this is a major cause of friction for newcomers into the Web3 space. After all, the quicker Web3 grows, the greater the need for avenues of understanding the data that comes out of it.Enter KNN3. KNN3 is a direct resul...

What is Digital IdentityWe identify in many ways: our races, our nationalities, our genders, and our favorite sports teams. Being able to articulate our identities helps us create 1) a sense of self, complete with goals and hopes, and 2) a sense of community, where we co-exist with like-minded people. As technology advances, we find new ways to self-identify. Take for example the NFT boom in 2021. It allowed entire clusters of people to identify as all sorts of cartoon animals and even aliens...
