XYO has announced a partnership with peer-to-peer encyclopedia project Everipedia that will leverage blockchain tech.

This will tap XYO’s ability to capture, index, and store geospatial data, combined with Everipedia’s data curation models.

“We are really impressed by what the XYO team has developed technologically, and see considerable opportunity for synergies with what we’re doing at Everipedia,” comments Everipedia CEO and Co-Founder Theodor Forselius.

“By each of our companies focusing on our respective area of expertise I’m confident we can produce a very powerful tools together; we expect great things to come from this collaboration and believe the community will be very impressed.”

Initially, XYO will work with the Everipedia team to create and provide rich data sets that enhance the many point of interest (POI) entries in the decentralised peer-to-peer encyclopedia. “We’re excited to announce and build out our partnership with Everipedia, widely recognised as the world’s largest peer-to-peer knowledge base,” says Arie Trouw CEO and Co-Founder of XYO.

“Everipedia’s IQ Network is the world’s first encyclopedia that allows anyone to become a stakeholder in the system and earn rank, rewards and tokens for curating content, and it’s an attractive opportunity to support the overall cause and project, while making the most of our robust location verification capabilities.”
