Summary

In this Episode 3, I talk with Billy Luedtke, from the project called Intuition about his short journey to crypto and long journey in crypto 🙂 I mean Billy is the crypto OG. He's the person behind the first decentralized IRL identity project - Zug ID and other projects. Basically, Billy has been around for a long time.

With Billy, we both agree on the importance of decentralized identity and reputation which does not really exist today. Intuition.Systems aims to create a trusted interaction layer in the blockchain space, allowing users to collect reputation and make better decisions by providing more data for humans and things as well.

The platform Intuition is building will allow for the claiming of information about anything, from people to products, and they aim to create a semantic web where data is easily accessible and understandable. Intuition is focused on the protocol and middleware layers, but will also initially build on the application layer to drive adoption. That's what every successful team in crypto has to do. The platform will (most likely) be live in June/July 2024 (I'm redacting it to July/Aug 2024 and let's see).

I hope you have found something interesting in today's episode! I mean, I find the whole identity and reputation space fascinating because both are such context dependent things. Solving the reputation challenge correctly is definitely a worthy endeavour.
