Golden Protocol is a decentralized canonical knowledge graph that maps the 10 billion entities that exist, as well as the public knowledge surrounding them. The protocol supports a wide range of triple types, qualifiers, and associated evidence. The triple graph can be utilized to power DApps and services that require fundamental knowledge. Each agent can submit triples to be validated, and, if accepted, they will be rewarded with tokens. Validators and predictions from the knowledge graph itself decide whether triples are accepted.

SpruceID is an ecosystem of open-source tools that enable user-controlled identity anywhere. Kepler is a decentralized storage system that uses smart contracts to define where data is stored and who has access to it.

Mysterious is a Web3 native chat platform. It allows users to log in with an Ethereum wallet, using asset verification to prevent spam and display notifications. Members can also mint, swap, play, vote, and more with a single click.

Violet is the compliance and identity infrastructure for DeFi. The core of the system consists of standardized methods to issue compliance credentials (in the form of non-transferable tokens) and map smart-contract access controls on the Ethereum network. This is coupled with resilient authentication (proof of identity) and enables DeFi markets to create permissioned environments where only credential holders, who are subject to continuous AML checks, can gain access.

Secured Finance seeks to revolutionize decentralized finance by offering investment-bank-grade financial products and services for cryptocurrencies and digital assets.
