TalenTale: A Real Community with Real Networking Stories!

Cointime Official

TalenTale is a next-generation web3.0 social and protocol product, discovering a new possibility of professional social networking in the web3.0 field. The company has seen significant growth, with over 18,000 followers on Twitter and 16,000 followers on Discord in a very short term. TalenTale aims to provide decentralized social consensus value for everyone, based on their NFT value. It allows users to convert their past career and educational experiences into utility NFTs (T-Cards). In this case, if you purchase and hold someone else's T-Card, users can gain access to their contact information and potentially more personalized services from the NFT issuers. In other words, everyone can build their community and business models.

What is decentralized value?

TalenTale is a platform that aims to revolutionize the way personal value is determined by society. Today, people’s value is often determined by centralized organizations such as companies and schools through a person’s salary or net worth. However, TalenTale believes that in the future, the personal value should be determined by the global market through the prices of individual NFTs instead of the current criteria. This vision is based on the idea that the definition of talent is constantly changing in today's society. Also, the traditional markers of success such as a prestigious education or professional experience at a well-known company may not necessarily be proof of one's abilities currently.

TalenTale recognizes that in today's globalized and diverse world, individuals in diverse fields such as TikTok influencers, personal media operators, and web3.0 talents are gaining recognition in the market for their multiple skills and abilities. These individuals may not have traditional markers of success, but they possess valuable skills and talents that should be recognized. For instance, a famous moderator in Web 3.0 who is not from a famous university can also develop NFT with high values. TalenTale's platform aims to provide a universal price and circulation market for talent that takes into account the diverse range of skills and backgrounds in today's society.

On the TalenTale platform, users can convert their past career and educational experiences into utility NFTs (T-Cards), these T-Cards represent their skills, talents, and experiences in a digital format that can be easily recognized and valued in the market. By holding someone else's T-Card, users can gain access to their contact information and potentially more personalized services, such as mentoring, collaborations, or job opportunities. This allows for the recognition and value of diverse talents and skills in a way that is not limited by traditional markers of success.

Interesting social attributes

TalenTale's platform not only allows for the recognition and value of diverse talents and skills, but it also allows for the authentication of social relationships through its Soul ID feature. Different NFTs can authenticate different relationships, such as a classmate, business partner, investor, couple, good friend, nemesis, etc. on the blockchain, forming a tamper-proof relationship authentication. This function adds an interactive aspect to the platform, as users can enter each other's social relationship chain profile after holding each other's NFT.

The TalenTale team has also added a fun fact about this product, as one team member joked that "because it is tamper-proof, checking the past experience of my ex-girlfriend's current boyfriend may be just what I need." This highlights the potential for the platform to not only revolutionize the way personal value is determined in society but also add a new level of interactivity and fun to social connections.

Core Technologies

The infrastructure layer of TalenTale is based on cross-chain message technology, which enables cross-chain data interoperability, multi-chain information sharing, and full integration of the ecology and resources of each chain. This allows for the seamless integration of different blockchain networks, making it easier for users to access and utilize the resources available on each network.

The protocol layer builds an on-chain smart contract system with personal credentials and relationship mapping as the core. Also, the abstraction of ETH address is realized to solve the problem of soul loss. This layer allows for the creation of personal credentials and relationship mapping on the blockchain, providing a tamper-proof way to authenticate and recognize relationships and identities.

The application layer is designed with fissionable personal NFTs, which solves the market liquidity problem while safeguarding the interests of early investors. This layer allows for the creation of personal NFTs that can be divided and traded, increasing market liquidity while protecting the interests of early investors. This allows for more efficient and fair trading of personal NFTs.

A real community with an emphasis on a 1:1 invitation system

TalenTale's platform also develops a unique 1:1 invitation system that leverages real relationships to further develop its community and improve the social experience for its members. To become a TalenTale user, each user needs to establish an on-chain relationship with an existing user. This not only helps to build a more engaging and active community, but it also creates a more highly interactive social atmosphere by leveraging the six-degree rule of networking.

This feature allows users to easily connect with people they already know and trust, which can lead to more meaningful and valuable interactions within the platform. This feature also helps to build a strong sense of community as users are able to connect with people who share similar interests and backgrounds. In addition, it can help to increase the security of the platform, since users are more likely to trust and interact with people they already know, rather than strangers. Overall, the 1:1 invitation system is a key feature of TalenTale's platform that helps to create a more interactive and community-driven experience for its users.

How does Web3 social work? 

SocialFi is undoubtedly a hot topic these days, and there are countless competitors in this track. TalenTale is targeting the English-speaking market and has already established a real community and met user expectations in the early stage. We expect the emergence of more excellent application layer products. Once the real users experience the fun and meaning of Web3 through more emerging products, the prosperity of the whole ecology will be on the way.

  • Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission: The Anti-Money Laundering Ordinance applies to the virtual asset industry

    The "virtual currency to ETF" mechanism in Hong Kong has raised concerns about money laundering. The industry believes that the review difficulty, such as KYT (Know Your Token), is high. Some individuals with mainland backgrounds are trying to conduct small-scale "virtual currency to ETF" transactions, taking the opportunity to "whiten" their own holdings of ether and bitcoin through forms such as personal accounts. They have also deployed some virtual currencies to Hong Kong's virtual currency exchanges and will decide whether to increase capital in the future depending on the situation. When responding to relevant questions, the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission emphasized that in the operation of ETF products, every link in the entire virtual asset ecosystem, including fund companies, custodians, asset trading platforms, participating brokers, etc., must be licensed or recognized institutions and strictly comply with requirements such as asset custody, liquidity, valuation, information disclosure, and investor education. The "Anti-Money Laundering Ordinance" of the Securities and Futures Commission also stipulates that financial institutions and designated non-financial enterprises and industry personnel must comply with customer due diligence and record-keeping requirements, and relevant regulations apply to the virtual asset industry.
