Golden

Golden is decentralized knowledge protocol. It is on a mission to map human knowledge. Our vision is to create a decentralized knowledge graph protocol that maps 10 billion entities and the public knowledge surrounding them. The world is lacking a decentralized graph of canonical knowledge that is open, free, permissionless and incentivizes contributions to the graph.

It started as a web2 company in San Francisco on a mission to map all human knowledge. We raised $20m from leading VCs and investors ranging from a16z to Balaji to Founders Fund and many others. Since Fall 2021, we have been ramping up efforts to create a web3 version of Golden to increase the speed that the knowledge graph can be built. Golden is building a permissionless, open source protocol that incentivizes the collection and verification of canonical knowledge, which it will offer to the public for free and charge commercial entities.
