Project Spotlight #30

In our “Project Spotlight” series, we highlight new projects making significant strides in the web3 community. This series keeps you updated on innovative projects and companies that are shaping the future of decentralised technologies. Be sure to check out and follow their progress as they contribute to the ever-evolving web3 landscape.

1. Cluster Protocol

Cluster Protocol is a decentralized AI infrastructure that democratizes AI development by making it accessible, affordable, and user-friendly. It enables anyone to build, train, deploy, and monetize AI models within a few clicks. By reducing barriers to AI development, providing necessary computational resources, and offering user-friendly tools, Cluster Protocol aims to put the power of AI into the hands of developers, businesses, and individuals alike. Key features include plug-and-play AI models, a secure data marketplace, an AI collaboration hub, high-performance tools, enterprise-grade GPU infrastructure, and a versatile AI template library.

2. Koinos Network

Koinos is a general-purpose blockchain-based decentralised network designed to offer free-to-use applications through its innovative “Mana” mechanism, which dynamically prices network resources based on opportunity cost rather than tokens, enabling free-to-use dApps via Mana delegation. The network utilizes a proof-of-burn consensus algorithm to ensure efficiency, decentralisation, and provable egalitarianism, effectively countering exchange attacks and mitigating spam. Blocks are produced by combining the hash of a private key with the output of a verifiable random function (VRF) and dividing it by the number of tokens burned, with the longest chain serving as the immutable transaction record. Koinos is built with a modular upgradeability framework, allowing for fork-less upgrades, and providing a free-to-use, truly decentralised blockchain with a mainstream user experience that is accessible to end-users, developers, and node operators alike.

3. Another-1

Another-1 is a cutting-edge Web3 platform built on Polygon, offering the ultimate Phygital solution where users can explore, create, customize, and collect Phygital collectibles backed by NFC-authenticated physical goods. As a one-stop shop for this emerging asset class, Another-1 seamlessly merges the traditional fashion world with the Web3 sphere, providing a dynamic ecosystem for brands, designers, retailers, and gaming projects. The platform focuses on ‘phygital marketing,’ enabling traditional fashion stakeholders to easily transition into the digital realm by launching, trading, and consuming Phygital collectibles. At the same time, Another-1 supports Web3 communities, such as NFT projects and blockchain games, by integrating Phygital fashion elements to enhance their digital identities. Through this holistic strategy, Another-1 is redefining the ‘phygital plus’ value proposition, bridging the gap between physical and digital realities in the fashion industry.

4. Enkrypt

Enkrypt is a web3 wallet designed to seamlessly support the multi-chain future, allowing users to send, receive, swap, and manage tokens and NFTs, as well as interact with dApps across their favorite blockchains with just a few clicks. With a single seed phrase for all accounts, Enkrypt simplifies asset management while maintaining strong security. For those seeking additional protection, Enkrypt is compatible with popular hardware wallets like Ledger and Trezor, providing an extra layer of security.
