Karat Network is a decentralized data identity protocol that allows users to take control of their Web2 and Web3 data while earning rewards for participating in the network. It is the only Data Middleware that is fully on-chain and provides users with the ability to share and control their data. The network opens up limitless possibilities in the form of a personal data marketplace and encourages dApps to build on top of it.

Current Problems of Today’s Data Infrastructure

Today's internet landscape is characterized by privacy concerns, limited choice, biased algorithms, security risks, and a lack of control for users. Large, centralized internet companies have access to vast amounts of users' data. There is a risk that these corporations will misuse or mishandle that data, leading to breaches of privacy. Users are frustrated with their lack of control and are disempowered to find any solution. Their personal data is being exploited for commercial gain without their consent.

However, with the Karat Network, users have the power to take control of their Web2 and Web3 data while earning rewards for participating in the network. By utilizing cutting-edge MPC and ZK technologies, the Karat Network creates a decentralized data identity protocol that is fully on-chain, ensuring privacy and security for all users. This eliminates the need for centralized data collection and storage, minimizing the risk of security breaches and protecting users' privacy.

In addition, the Karat Network opens up limitless possibilities, such as a personal data marketplace, where users can choose to share their data with others in exchange for rewards. This will encourage a more diverse and innovative online ecosystem, as smaller companies and developers will have access to a wider range of data to build their products and services.

Our Vision

KaratDAO’s mission is to onboard 100 million users onto blockchain by connecting their Web 2 and 3 identity and provide them the infrastructure to truly own and control the access of all their digital footprints, ID data, in social, medical, and financial aspects

By providing users with the ability to share and control their data, the Karat Network addresses the lack of control that users currently experience with centralized internet companies. This empowers users to take ownership of their personal data and use it to their own advantage, rather than having it exploited by large companies without their consent.

In summary, the Karat Network solves the problems of centralized data infrastructure by providing users with privacy, security, control, and new opportunities to share and monetize their data.
