It's time to talk about trust.

If Cosmos is the internet of blockchains, then Cheqd is the internet of trust.

But what is Cheqd?

How does it work?

And why is it key for #Web3 to become a reality?

A 🧵👇

$CHEQ @cheqd_io
#Web3 #SSI #cosmos #DID
Decentralised Identifiers #DID's, and #incentives via blockchain solutions are going to challenge everything we know about handling #data.

New commercial business models.

New marketplaces.

New privacy.

It's the bedrock of #web3.

Cheqd is making it easier for (A) individuals and (B) organisations to trust each other!

No more data silos to be leaked or hacked.

No more data sold without consent.

No more relationships and transactions without trust.

Taking back control in a trustless network.
A) Benefits for individuals:

The average person has over 190 passwords, which are hard to manage and prone to hacking.

Your data shouldn't be in silos waiting to be leaked or stole, and companies shouldn't make money selling your data without your consent.
B) Benefits for organisations:

#DIDs allow for new business models for verifiable credentials.

Cheqd helps companies create new and innovative business models, ensuring self-sovereign identity (#SSI) is a viable and rewarding service to offer to customers.
There will come a time when the handling of data will undergo a revolution.

The realisation that blockchain has the power to disintermediate and bring down walls, show the benefits of collaboration, co-opetition, incentives to create new business models.

blog.avast.com/eidas-2.0-avast
To accomplish all this, Cheqd has built partnerships across #cosmos and #web3.

Adoption of #SSI, new commercial models and new marketplaces if Cheqd network is ever going to succeed.

It will be exciting to see what new partnerships @cheqd_io will strike next.
Startups, corporations, governments, and NGOs will use decentralised identity to give people more control back of their data and make its use secure and transparent.

But there needs to be a network with a payment mechanism to compensate for these efforts.

$CHEQ is just that.
cheqd aims at becoming the go-to network for self-sovereign / self-managed identity.

$CHEQ allows issuers/receivers/holders/node operators to pay each other for digital credentials without compromising the privacy and security of users.
There are 3 parts to the $CHEQ tokenomics:

1⃣ Introducing the basic tokenomics: cheqd.io/blog/cheqds-to…
2⃣ Covering the initial distribution of the token: cheqd.io/blog/cheqds-to…
3⃣ Payment rails: cheqd.io/blog/cheqds-to…
By introducing payments and other economic incentives via the $CHEQ token, Cheqd will turbocharge the adoption of #SSI, return control and privacy to individuals, and enable new business models for authentic data.

The future is trustless in full swing 🤘

IBC will connect everything.
IBC makes #cosmos superior.
IBC will make blockchain mainstream.

But what is #IBC?

What's so special about this thing?

A 🧵👇
IBC consists of a transport layer and an application layer

The transport layer provides the infrastructure to establish secure connections & authenticate data packets between chains.

The application layer defines exactly how data packets should be packaged and interpreted.
The easiest way to these layers is to use @adi_r_r's postal analogy:

➡️ IBC transport layer: Postal service
➡️ IBC packets: Letter
➡️ IBC application layer: Recipient

Agoric's $BLD token is coming to Huobi (@huobiglobal) 🙏

In addition, Agoric (@agoric) is planning to roll out a stablecoin $IST.

What's all the fuzz about?

A 🧵👇
Agoric is a Proof-of-Stake chain utilizing secure #javascript smart contracts to rapidly build and deploy DeFi.

Agoric believes that bringing the world economy online requires making it easy for the world’s programmers to develop smart contracts.
The key to make it easy for developers to build smart contracts is to enable development in the programming language they already know.

There are already thousands if not millions of #javascript developers.

Hence, Agoric is a smart contract platform for JavaScript developers.

The people of #cosmos have spoken once again so here goes a 🧵on

👉AIRDROPS👈

What are they?
Why are they important?
How can they change your life in #crypto forever?

Airdrops, what are they?

An #airdrop is essentially when a project distributes their native token to users for free.

This is done by a project to create awareness, increase adoption and grow the network.
How to claim an #airdrop?

The process varies from project to project because each project have their own mechanism on how they plan on transferring their native token.

Most important thing you need in order to claim an airdrop is a crypto wallet such as @keplrwallet.

The people of #cosmos have spoken and as promised a 🧵 on the Kujira (@TeamKujira $KUJI) vs the Terra (@terra_money $LUNA $LUNC) ecosystems.

What are the similarities between #Kujira and #TERRALUNA?

How do they differ?

And how to avoid getting rekt!!?

Kujira and Terra are often compared.

And for good reasons:

➡️ Kujira has $KUJI, Terra has $LUNA $LUNC
➡️ Kujira has $USK, Terra has $UST $USTC
➡️ Kujira has ORCA, Terra has Anchor
➡️ Kujira is building a wallet, Terra has Terra Station

You get the idea...
If not for the similar ecosystems, Kujira even originates from the Terra blockchain.

With the meltdown of $LUNA and $UST though, Kujira moved on to build their own layer 1 protocol based on #Cosmos.

More on Kujira below👇

Our fellow #cosmonauts have spoken and our next deep dive that you wanted was:

👉ODIN Protocol👈

The Cross Chain Data Oracle, built on #cosmos. Or put another way:

⚛ The Open Data Interoperable Network ⚛

$GEO
$ODIN
@odinprotocol
@data_verse
ODIN is a decentralized system designed to build a data oracle network based on an open protocol for interaction between participants and a sustainable economy.

Kind of like Chainlink (@chainlink $LINK) or Band Protocol (@BandProtocol $BAND).
In addition to organizing the data oracle network, ODIN is building a decentralized peer-to-peer data sharing and trading ecosystem for delivering real-world data onchain for various use cases including
- #DeFi
- Betting
- Prediction apps
- #NFTs

Time for a deep dive 🧵 on one of the most promising projects on Cosmos:

👉Secret Network👈

$SCRT
@SecretNetwork
#secretnetwork
#privacy
#SCRTAgents
Secret Network is "the first blockchain with data privacy by default for every dapp - 100x'ing the possibilities for #DeFi, #NFTs, .."

Crypto is becoming a bigger and bigger part of our financial lives, and with that everything is stored visibly on the blockchain.
This means that privacy is going to play an important role, so that crypto users have a choice to keep their transaction history and wallet balances to themselves.

"But I have nothing to hide".

Classic example of any free person's famous last words.

Privacy is a human right.
