Column (Techstars Crypto '23)

A reputation-based digital identity protocol for Creators.

Industry: Media, Social, Consumer, Creator Economy, Distributed Computing

Trust in media, especially social media, has been decreasing for some time now, and it's becoming increasingly difficult to find reliable sources of information. 

This has led to people feeling disillusioned with social media and its sources, causing them to question the legitimacy of the content they consume.

The key: reputation is the backbone of all information. As people build up their reputation, others want to subscribe to their authority. 

Column's protocol introduces a novel way to objectively rank the value and trustworthiness of content across platforms, helping users and platforms better understand the relevancy of both content and creators.
