Ontology In The Media

The Currency Analytics - Ontology (ONT) Decentralized Identity (Did) Framework and OScore in Metaverse

The Currency Analytics, a highly reputable online cryptocurrency publication, wrote that Ontology is going to be an important part of the evolving fictional concept of the “Metaverse.” The Metaverse is a collective, virtual space, which consists of the totality of virtual worlds and augmented realities on the internet.

Ontology’s “ONT ID”, a decentralized identity (DID) framework, and “OScore”, a self-management scoring system, aim to make it possible for users to migrate between parts of the Metaverse with consistent identities, while at the same time ensuring that data privacy is respected.

Ontology is a new high-performance public blockchain, allowing firms to integrate blockchain technology into their businesses. What makes Ontology special is its decentralized identity solutions, most notably, ONT ID. Users have full access and ownership over any data associated with them. Ontology enables open and secure cross-chain transactions, in which users can transfer data and tokenized assets within the framework of an enterprise-wide collaboration.
