The MetaHUMAN Foundation has announced a grant program to support a new generation of projects seeking to adopt and build on the HUMAN Protocol.
As Cointelegraph en Español learned, Successful candidates will have access to a $ 10 million allocated fund to drive adoption of the Protocol and realize the new possibilities of HUMAN technology in new use cases.
The HUMAN Protocol is an open source infrastructure. Through a statement they explained: “It is a beginning – a new way of representing and verifying value and human contribution – on which it can be built. With each new application, the diversity of the work processed by the Protocol expands, and the usefulness of the HMT token as a means to represent all forms of contribution increases ”.
As indicated, The HUMAN Protocol facilitates a new future of work by offering a permit-free exchange system. “Automated by software, enforced by smart contracts, and settled on the blockchain, the HUMAN Protocol means that any input or interaction can be tokenized, and its value represented safely,” they stated.
Its main application is the creation and liquidation of open labor markets; The first to be supported by the Protocol is a data labeling marketplace, designed to provide Machine Learning professionals with the data they need to create more relevant and detailed data sets.
“The grant program enables others to carry on what we have started. The HUMAN Protocol offers an open source and widely applicable solution to automatically represent, verify and value employee contribution. These could be labor markets in which organizations request different jobs, divided into compound tasks; solutions like Proof of HUMANity that verify human behavior; or global question-and-answer systems, “said Alex Newman, designer of the protocol.
However, the core technology of the HUMAN Protocol goes far beyond labor markets. “It governs, secures and automates the exchange of contributions – including knowledge – for value. Through it, all parties can interact and trade without trust; For example, organizations can request the completion of jobs by global workforces, with composite tasks spread across partner applications. It makes possible a more complete crowdsourcing model in which both parties benefit equally and all contributions are rewarded ”, they specified in a statement.
“HUMAN Protocol is built to change the future of work. That change will require collaboration; it will require us to support projects as they apply technology to their unique use cases. We are pleased to offer a program that can help projects use, develop and adopt the HUMAN Protocol. Such a powerful tool needs to be worked together. This is how we achieve a better future for work, “said Andreas Schemm, Head of Ecosystem.
In this way, the grant program is an invitation to companies, independent entrepreneurs and developers to submit an application that, far from monetary rewards, can offer them a better way to reward workers, offer more to users or increase the value generated by user interactions.
Applicants will be evaluated according to pre-established criteria, including the feasibility of the proposal and its potential value to the HUMAN ecosystem.
