I'm just going to do a quick tech check to make sure that you guys can hear me okay.
And then we're going to kick off with Dave from Orange Protocol.
Harbingers, if you can let me know that you can hear me okay, that would be awesome.
If you guys can hear me okay, just drop in an emoji. Thank you. Great, let's kick this off. I'm not seeing any feedback from you guys, so I assume you
can hear me okay. I've just pinged everyone in Telegram. But Dave, thanks so much for
joining us today. I know you do kind of jump on these community calls quite a bit. I'm
really excited to get the update around orange um just in case
anybody's not familiar with orange protocol would be awesome if you could do an intro
yeah definitely and thanks for having me on clear um i think the the basis of orange is that it's
a decentralized reputation as a service layer so if you're like a builder let you compose way
publish your own kind of reputation models sorry from almost any data on and off chain.
So typically what we do is push people towards our reputation studio.
So say you're like a DAO, you're a DeFi app or a social platform,
you can basically drag and drop data sources, wallet history, GitHub activity,
any sort of attestations, Twitter handles,
et cetera. So we've basically, through the Orange Humanities score, we've assigned a
weight to each of these. So you can kind of put through as many as you want to get a higher
score. So you're basically adding on top of this sort of proof of humanity, this orange humanity score.
And then you can mint the result as a verifiable credential,
basically a non-transferable NFT.
So these credentials then travel with the user's wallet. So the same score can be used across any chain, any protocol.
So it's fully chain agnostic.
So you can do it for your your community to i don't know give
unlock discord roles give fee discounts gate governance or drive airdrops um and i think a lot
of the kind of key areas that we're we're looking at the moment are those projects that benefit the
most from having verifiable credentials um i think gaming is is pretty key one. Like at the moment, if you're a top gamer on one
particular chain or one particular game, as soon as you leave that, you can't take that
reputation, that effort that you've built up with you. And for projects, they don't know what the
value of an individual gamer is that comes to their project. So it's a way for you to kind of bring the sort of clout
with you that you're kind of a top level, kind of high reputation person, that you're a real person,
you're not a bot, you're not part of a Sybil attack. And then for the project side, they can
get a real understanding of how their community is in terms of reputation level, in terms of how many real people are there
versus bots versus low-quality wallet holders.
So one of the ways we've done this, I suppose,
is to pull in as many high-quality data sources as we can.
So if you go into our data model explorer,
you'll see 50 or so different models
that projects or users can use
to prove their humanity to prove their activity both on-chain and off-chain and as i mentioned
then they can they can use this these data models uh these data sets to add to their orange humanity
score and kind of increase that so i think like it's it it's interesting in the space because
reputation is so important you can't just launch now and hope that you'll get high quality users.
You have to go out there and find them and target them.
And Orange is very flexible and can be integrated into almost any project.
It gives you this reputation layer without you having to go and build that yourself,
which can be time-consuming.
As I said, we've been working on it for quite some time.
And then on the other side,
we do run something similar to kind of a galaxy,
where there's quests there,
but we've added this reputation element on top.
So you can go in and enter our humanity score,
but you can also then participate
in many of the quest campaigns
that we've got running with our partner projects.
At the moment, there's three or four quite interesting ones,
And even just to mint your Orange Humanity score,
there's a monthly ongoing campaign that we're giving away.
I think it was around 1,200 ONG every month
to random folks who participate in that
and mint their Orange Humanity score. So
that's kind of the quick intro to Orange and what we've kind of been doing up to now.
Yeah, I think that there's a lot to unpack and I think it's necessary for the community to
understand just how a project like Orange is being utilised and what it's offering them,
as an end user, especially.
And I think having this ongoing campaign that I know you've been running for the past couple of months,
I think just supports users.
And I think it's super effective.
But yeah, so it would be great actually to know about the latest data models around Orange
and what you guys have just integrated recently.
Yeah, yeah, definitely. I think this is the reason why I joined the call today because we're going to be
shortly releasing a detailed blog post around this and pushing out some PR around it. You'll
see as well on social. But just to give a quick intro before we do this. So we've integrated a human passport as one
of our data models for Orange. What's interesting about this is it's kind of split into a whole
bunch of different models that you can now use. Like you can use like an e-passport,
government ID, proof of clean hands, and even phone number. So this is kind of tapping into
this. And this is kind of tapping into this.
And this is part of the reason, I suppose,
why we're a key part of the ontology ecosystem is this taps more into the DID side of things,
so decentralized identity,
but it allows us to kind of use that
to create this extra reputation layer.
So not only can you kind of utilize human passport
as a data model, kind of set up your human ID,
your e-passport, whatever it might be.
But it also contributes towards your reputation score.
So it's quite cool in that sense.
I think adding these data models kind of really reinforces the kind of mission
that we have to make Orange the kind of leader, I suppose, in the reputation space.
I think there's a lot of kind of push now over the next few months
to continue to add these models where we can.
We're going to touch on kind of what we've planned for 2025
as part of kind of a look back at a roadmap and what we've done so far.
But this is like one of the key parts of it.
develop these data models makes us more attractive to a wider range of different projects means
there's more value for the user there's more ways for you to increase your orange humanity score
increase your reputation and then take this across the kind of crypto space so this is this is kind
of a big part of our our, is to add these data models.
Human Passport's a really big one for us.
It opens up a huge amount of things that we can do now with different projects.
So the idea there is to make a big splash about this over the next few days
and let folks know what they can now do.
It's all live on the Reputation Studio in Orange.
You can go in and check it out see the
different uh the different basically uh models that we have as part of this human passport launch
um and what and what you can do as well as is detailed in there so
i think they're pretty much all public now at this stage
And also, yeah, would be great if we could do a quick recap on what's happening in 2025.
For Orange, I know that you already did like a roadmap call with us, but maybe for folks
that couldn't attend, would be great to understand just how everything that you've just mentioned in regards to these latest data model sets,
how this is going to impact the roadmap for 2025.
Yeah, I think it's probably good to kind of look at what we've actually gone
and managed to launch, and then we can kind of chat a little bit about
So some of the key kind of upgrades.
So Feb of last year, we did the EAS
integration. So that brought basically every Optimism Ethereum attestation service claim
onto Orange. So you've got your KYC checks, your course completions, POAPs into the studio as this
sort of plug and play data feed. So that was a pretty significant one. Quite recently as well, just in January, we announced the launch of our ZKTLS, it's always a mouthful, SDK.
So this basically lets projects prove ownership of Web2 accounts, Web3 on-chain data as well. So say, for example, like Discord, Binance, Twitter, but inside these zero knowledge proofs
before passing the evidence into the reputation models.
So what this means is that the user now can say, come into Orange, the ZKTLS will figure
out if they hit these criteria, hit these parameters, and will tell the project that, yep, they do hold this credential.
They have taken this action.
This is a correct account, but they'll never have to share that data
with third parties, with Orange, directly.
So it's a great way of increasing the kind of proof of humanity reputation elements
that we have already, but protecting the user's data, which is a massively important thing at the moment.
So looking a little bit forward,
so as part of the roadmap, we want to have like this AI-powered reputation.
So this essentially will implement like AI models to analyze on-chain behavior.
This will help, obviously, improve the proof of humanity.
One of the key things around this is a dynamic scoring mechanism.
So at the moment, it's very static.
But an AI model will allow you to kind of dynamically,
will basically adapt dynamically to the user's behavior and activity,
and their score will change or update based on this.
Some of the other cool stuff that this will bring as well
will be stuff like predictive fraud detection
and reputation-based identity analytics for enterprise use.
So essentially protecting larger projects against fraud
or any kind of reputation-based attack on a large level.
So this could be around a TGE, around an airdrop, where you typically have a lot of folks trying
to game the system, trying to work around things and extract as much value from projects
without actually adding any value from their side.
So super useful. A lot of projects are trying to tackle this themselves.
So giving them kind of a plug and play out of the box option
like Orange is going to have a lot of value for them.
And then I think the final thing around the AI side is this development of
decentralized AI reputation oracles for external applications, not internally,
which is again another great use for AI models that works really, really well.
Inside the product itself, we're looking forward to a number of new upgrades.
So an advanced point system with tiered incentives is one that's key.
As part of this, then we'll have a ranking board soon.
So you have this kind of transparent reputation metrics
so you can kind of compare yourself to other folks
without obviously sharing any data.
And we want to increase kind of activity on Orange itself.
So looking at a bunch of different things like daily check-in rewards
to encourage participation, referral program, and then minting of like premium NFTs with enhanced reputation-based attributes.
And then finally, like as part of Orange's kind of bigger roadmap, or sorry, Ontology's bigger roadmap, Orange will help support on the IM side,
the instant messaging side that we have upcoming.
So adding a reputation element to the instant messenger. So it tackles one of the key problems that you have
with platforms like Telegram,
where you don't know if you're even talking to the right person.
There's no proof of humanity.
It's very susceptible to major scams.
We've seen this every day over the last year.
Someone I know has been kind of scammed or attempted to scam on Telegram.
So offering this alternative where you have reputation,
you know the person you're talking to is the person you're talking to,
I think that's hugely, hugely valuable.
So that's kind of most of what we're looking at for kind of 2025.
We've stuff like other stuff like multi-chain deployments,
like we recently launched on base.
We're already live and kind of Ethereum and a bunch of other chains already.
We have been for quite a while, but I think more chains means Thank you. I really appreciate all the insights you shared with us today.
I think just to highlight for folks, maybe I've seen just a few people kind of join in
now a little bit late, but just to kind of confirm what Orange Protocol is actually doing.
So it's a decentralized reputation and identity protocol.
So this kind of covers across a bunch of different things,
including Web3 and Web2, but also it helps users,
I mean, just in general, and developers as well,
but build trustless, portable reputations.
I think that's something really key that Dave has just highlighted,
but it's to ensure that you can get all of this information across
DApps, DAOs, DeFi,ify within dify also across nft social platforms
yeah just to ensure that there's a possibility to aggregate all of this on and off chain activity
and to ensure that these are just real folks like with verifiable credentials
and yes so that there's this seamless reputation portability as well as i just said but across
platforms and i'm really excited to to see how IO Orange is growing.
I know Dave does pretty much everything within Orange.
So the fact that he's able to kind of achieve all of this,
I think is super impressive.
And just for everybody to know,
there's going to be on the Ontology 8th birthday
is kicking off at the end of the month.
I will be hosting a bunch of spaces around the campaign.
We're going to be giving you guys a lot of rewards. We're going to be helping you trying to, you know, utilize all
of the Ontology products so that you can stake and you guys can get a lot more involved in
what's happening with Ontology. Dave, is there anything you want to wrap up with today? so for some reason yeah i just i just encourage everyone as i said earlier to go and mint their
orange humanity score like get into the ecosystem,
start taking part in some of our quest campaigns that we've live at the moment.
And obviously, yeah, follow all the typical kind of social community channels.
There's usually quite a bit of activity there. Thank you.
