Web3 Data Infrastructure

Web3 Infrastructure Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Hong Kong focused on advancing open-source infrastructure for the Web3 ecosystem. It aims to unify and support high-quality open-source projects worldwide, fostering a decentralized technology ecosystem that underpins the next generation of internet technologies. The foundation's scope covers a broad range of foundational Web3 technologies including consensus algorithms like Proof of Work and Proof of Stake, federated systems, zero-knowledge proofs (such as SNARKs and ring signatures), decentralized identity (DID), trusted and confidential computing, runtime security, and supply chain security for software and hardware.

The foundation's mission is to build a transparent, reliable, and robust operational infrastructure that supports global Web3 development. It leverages Hong Kong's strategic position as a free port and international hub to promote cross-border and cross-organizational collaboration in Web3 infrastructure. The foundation encourages participation from individuals and groups interested in contributing to open-source Web3 infrastructure projects, aiming to create a sustainable ecosystem that addresses the technical challenges of decentralized systems.

Developers and organizations can engage with the foundation through its open-source projects hosted on GitHub. While the foundation itself does not provide a single product or SDK, it acts as a collaborative platform and steward for multiple foundational technologies critical to Web3. This makes it a valuable resource for infrastructure developers and enterprise blockchain teams seeking to build or integrate advanced decentralized technologies. Interested contributors can start by exploring the foundation's repositories and participating in community efforts to enhance Web3 infrastructure.
