Ontonaut’s Log: April 2025
Hey explorers,
Your Ontonaut reporting in. April was packed with missions across the Ontology ecosystem. From staking updates and new campaigns to serious movement in the Decentralized Identity world, here is what went down.
Big Moves in Decentralized Identity and Web3 Reputation 🚀
World kicked off a $300K Dev Rewards pilot 💰 designed to inspire more human-first apps. It is a major boost for builders who are focused on keeping users at the center of Web3.
