The Network State Stack

Web3 is a rewired internet backend that enables the true ownership of assets, data and identity, and composability stands at the centre of the Web3 user experience, especially in the context of social, gaming, and creator economy. There should be a complete technology stack which backs the Web3 UGCs, but it is yet to be built

...until NOW

We aim to build a comprehensive stack which enables the formation of a Network State that includes Social, On-chain Games, User-Generated Content, and Creator Economy tools
