The six steps range from data management and data access to options to sync with social media platforms. Supported by open, transparent and reliable on-chain digital identities, Welcome Home strikes a balance between the need to meet user demands and ensuring full protection of their privacy;
- On October 19, Ontology launched the OScore, a decentralized credit score based on the Ontology blockchain. Users can now check their OScore on ONTO, Ontology’s data wallet, and the OScore website (https://ocredit.io) where they can receive a detailed view of their digital asset profiles. Generated through real-time on-chain data, OScore provides a reliable overview of a user’s credit which services can use to adjust that user’s line of credit and lending and borrowing parameters.

Global Events

- On October 13, Nick ZHANG, Ontology’s ecosystem manager, participated in a discussion held by IPFS-force.com, a well-known IPFS ecosystem community. The discussion focused on the topic “What Changes Could a Credit Mechanism Bring to the DeFi Space.” During the discussion, Nick stated, “OScore, the newly-launched on-chain credit evaluation system, provides users with services on cross-chain asset authentication and increasing lines of credit in lending activities. Combined with multiple types of data on the Ontology blockchain, OScore is expected to lower collateralization rates to help users generate more value from their assets.”
