Contribution

Kiwi helps crypto builders find the best content without social media noise. Our community consumes hundreds of sources a month to handpick and upvote top content for crypto founders & developers. From tweets, through essays, up to Dune dashboards and GitHub repos.We a use P2P architecture - similar to Farcaster - so that most heavy data is stored offchain and only the most important elements, such as delegations & NFTs are stored onchain. The architecture promotes credible neutrality as it lets users run p2p nodes or clients with their own UI & moderation rules, such as kiwinews.lol run by our contributor, freeatnet or Kiwi News Search by matallo.We are 100% Open Source. Our R&D on scaling ETH via the P2P protocol and OP key delegation can be reused by others.

Impact

UX: We separate signals from noise. We are a trusted news source for builders, hence, we‘re strengthening the ecosystem. We had 5300+ unique visitors. We have around 80 monthly curators and 1,200 monthly readers.OP Stack:Our p2p protocol helps scale ETH. We use NFTs to authorize who can upvote/submit. We implement identity, i.e., FC and ENS. We store 4700 EIP-712 upvotes on our “side p2p network," to minimize onchain storage. We’ve delegated 123 keys to improve UX. We help to scale OP.DX:4 people (including us) have been shipping on Kiwi since April: Kiwi Search, kiwinews.lol and us. Delegator2 is a web3 UX breakthrough. We’ve co-organized DeSo meetups in Denver, Paris & Berlin. We gave talks at Protocol Berg, and Broadcast Summit. We’re growing DeSo on OP.
