0xScope is the first Web3 knowledge graph protocol. It solves the problem of Web3 data analyzing addresses instead of real users by establishing a new identity standard - a new scope entity from the data layer. And using its knowledge map function, it unifies the standards of different types of Web2 data and Web3 data, greatly reducing the difficulty of data collection and improving data penetration capabilities. At present, Watchers, a consumer-oriented application, has been launched, as well as 2B data services such as entity-based transaction tracking, address risk scoring and user portrait identification. 0xScope's partners can integrate 0xScope's data and algorithm capabilities into their own business through various flexible methods such as API, data cooperation, and customized data analysis reports.
