As long as you are not born after 2000, you must have heard of 'RSS subscription.' RSS, which stands for Really Simple Syndication, provides website information summaries, allowing users and applications to transmit article titles, summaries, full texts, and other information to subscribed users in a standardized format. Users can aggregate different information sources through subscribing to different RSS links and read these contents within a single tool.
Introduction to RSS3:
RSS3 is a decentralized network that indexes and structures open information, making it accessible and valuable for the next Twitter, Google, and OpenAI. With a unique design of data sub-layers and value sub-layers, the RSS3 network promotes the entire lifecycle of open information from indexing to consumption and establishes a healthy ownership economy.
Rss3 previously secured $10 million in investments from institutions such as Coinbase and DWF Labs, which is sufficient to prove its background strength and solid fundamentals. Furthermore, during the last bear market, RSS3 never stopped building, accumulating a large number of loyal users. Currently, RSS3 is continuously expanding its main business to align with market trends and strengthening cooperation with technology companies like Google to become the largest open information source for AI model training!
The RSS3 network is innovatively composed of two sub-layers:
The Data Sub-layer (DSL) is responsible for the management of the open information lifecycle, including indexing, transformation, storage, dissemination, and consumption.
The Value Sub-layer (VSL) is an Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain that uses NEAR as the data availability layer and is built with a custom OP stack. It is responsible for handling the value generated by open information activities and applications, establishing a healthy ownership economy for the network. $RSS3 is the native token. All sequencer revenues will be donated to public goods and ecosystem grants.
This network is carefully designed to support a wide range of applications from artificial intelligence training, social media to search engines.
RSS3 nodes are responsible for indexing, constructing, storing, and ultimately providing open information to end users. All users can stake tokens to join nodes and receive high rewards!
Currently, RSS3 nodes have been developed for several months, with a TVL of $155,485,479 and an average annualized return of 76%.
Innovation in social, search, artificial intelligence, and other fields
Social: As the largest open social indexer, RSS3 brings interoperability to content and bridges applications and users across various social protocols (including Lens, Farcaster to Nostr, ActivityPub, etc.).
Search: RSS3 simplifies the interpretation and aggregation of open information, making it easy to build search engines, cross-blockchain browsers, and activity feeds.
AI: RSS3 is the largest open information source for AI model training. The network provides a wealth of ready-to-use information for LLMs and multimedia models. RSS3 nodes can also implement their local priority models.
RSS3 Token Economic Model:
The total issuance of tokens is 1 billion, of which 64% will be allocated to the community, approximately 15% to the team, about 15% to seed and private round investors, 5% to the founding company Natural Selection Labs, and 1% to project advisors. Most tokens will be locked for the long term and will be released over a period of 5 years. Future growth of the protocol ecosystem and treasury will come from value-added services, SocialFi activities, and transaction taxes.
Since 2023, it can be said that we have officially entered the AI era, and AI has become the main tone of the entire market! So what developments does RSS3 have in AI?
On March 9, 2023, the Open Web Information Distribution Protocol RSS3 launched a Web3 AI open platform for developers, providing an environment for training GPT models on-chain data. Models trained in this environment will possess the ability to access, process, and think about data and information in decentralized networks. The scope covers but is not limited to DeFi, NFTs, decentralized social media, and other fields.
Previously, the first search engine product in the RSS3 ecosystem aimed at C-end users, hoot.it, has launched HootGPT based on GPT, which can provide users with a unique, natural, and interactive search experience.
On June 21, the Open Web Information Distribution Protocol RSS3 officially announced that a plugin named 'Web3 User Activity' developed by it has been officially launched in the ChatGPT store. This plugin collects and integrates all on-chain information and provides it to ChatGPT, allowing ChatGPT users to access more comprehensive on-chain content.
On December 20, according to official news, the Web3 Information Distribution Protocol RSS3 and OpenAI have joined forces to create a brand new social AI product for Web3, which will decentralize content and build an on-chain market with artificial intelligence, achieving a perfect combination of social products and AI algorithms. RSS3 will realize an ecological leap in social and AI interaction through this product, transforming into a new on-chain market.
On April 5, 2024, RSS3 partnered with Google Cloud to promote the development of open information layers, artificial intelligence (AI), and the Web3 field. To further support the construction of the open information ecosystem, RSS3 will collaborate with the Google Entrepreneur Cloud Program to provide developers with unprecedented technical support in the fields of artificial intelligence and Web3. Through the Open Information Fund, RSS3 aims to support creative projects and independent developers, moving together towards a more open and interconnected future.
Rishi Ramchandani, Head of Web3 Business Development at Google Cloud APAC, stated that the collaboration between Google Cloud and RSS3 will provide developers with the tools needed to drive the next wave of Web3 innovation.
RSS3 founder Joshua Meng stated that RSS3 will nurture the next generation of decentralized Twitter, Google, and OpenAI through open information.
On January 2, 2025, the AI+Social concept project RSS3 announced the introduction of TEE technology, which will demonstrate related openness and transparency through DNA comparisons conducted in a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), hoping to provide impetus for the next large-scale scientific research.
On January 3, RSS officially stated that it is building an ultimate AI data framework to support functional AI agents innovating in the crypto space, and is conducting in-depth research on DeSci with on-chain applications to advance research and tools, accelerate collaboration, and inspire innovation.
【It can be seen that RSS3 has consistently followed and even led the market in technological updates and expansions in AI, collaborating with world-class technology companies such as ChatGPT, OpenAI, and Google Cloud, while also introducing TEE technology and building the ultimate AI data framework to serve innovations for DeSci! It can be said that RSS3 has always been at the forefront of the AI wave!】
So, is the value of such a powerful AI engine currently underestimated?
According to token information from CoinMarketCap, RSS3 is currently listed on trading platforms such as OKX, Bybit, Bitget, HTX, MEXC, Gate, and the South Korean exchange Bithumb! There are rumors that it may also be listed on Coinbase!
Rss3's current price is 0.14u, with a total market capitalization of 140 million, and a circulating market capitalization of only 95 million.
In summary, RSS3, as an AI engine project that has traversed bull and bear markets, is listed on most mainstream trading platforms and has received investments from top institutions such as Coinbase and DWF. In the ever-evolving wave of AI, it has always adhered to the principles of technological innovation and user-centricity, continuously updating its technology to meet market demands, and has sought cooperation and support from more top companies like OpenAI. It is precisely this 'quiet presence' that has led the market to overlook its true value; the market capitalization of less than 100 million dollars compared to most AI projects with only a concept or shell but with market capitalizations in the billions raises the question of whether it is undervalued!
