Welcome to Web3 Data Alliance
The Web3DA’s goal is to bring more standards to data on Web3 Profiles, Assets, Products and Companies.
⁠

Note: This is not fully live - it is very much an alpha. We are testing, we have soft commitments behind closed doors, but we are focusing on other areas right now.
This will be picked up in the near future.

Why?

Data platforms provide information, UI’s and insights to all web3 users. Retail or institutional.
These are anything from wallets, custodians, portfolio tools, exchanges and DEXs. For too long have all the platforms existed on their own islands.
They currently spend $50M+ a year to implement and collect offchain data to their internal standards, closing off the market and forcing entrenchment. This leads to fragmentation. In the age of AI, this problem is going to get worse. The costs will go up year-on-year.

What?

Web3DA will be a foundation that leads, develops and advocates for a standard that encompasses Web3 / RWAs / Blockchain and will do so in an open source way.
We will probably end up building custom standard collaboration software that uses Web3 primitives.
The standard should stand for: simplicity, being agnostic, logical.
You can check out an early version (which will be updated over time) at
The Standard
⁠
and some
Definitions
⁠
.

How?

As a public good.
We will work together with data companies, profiles & regulators to come up with standard definitions.
Its goal is that it will be governed using a token (over time), the primary stakeholders being:
The data platforms that show data
The blockchain profiles / products / assets that produce data
Organisations that try to ‘define’ Web3 and its properties

The standard?

An early draft is available here:
The Standard
⁠
⁠
This will be developed ALOT more. Include regulatory information & more.

Who?

This is currently being led by
The Grid
⁠
. The Grid is founded by 2 people who care intensely about data.
Jonathan Knegtel -

⁠
⁠
Experienced GC, who wrote some of the most widely used data licensees, such as the one used by OpenStreet Map and the City of SF. Worked for traditional and scale up B2B SaaS companies for 20 years.

What is our charter?

To create a maintained, evolving standard that moves the ecosystem forward
To be independent and agnostic
To use Web3 to help structure Web3

After moderation, your info will show up below. We are focused on onboarding companies that show or directly consume data. We are not looking for independent researchers at this time, but do apply and leave us a note.

Threat intelligence needs to be tied to real world entities. Projects, people, applications.
Access to the repo of entities will help us build out a far more complete picture of the security landscape.
