The future we want to realize

Realizing a new web infrastructure centered on "individuals"

• No matter where you post it, anyone can tell it's the same person's post
• Make the whole web like a public community
• Bring your stuff in and out of any website or metaverse
• Finance evaluated by AI
• AI evaluates "individual" content scattered on the web as content of the same person
• Auto-generate member profiles in decentralized organizations where people freely participate

▶Posts distributed on the web are cross-linked using "individual" as a key

Image of the future we want to achieve

"Individual"-centered Web

By using a common ID similar to a passport in the real world, it is possible to build a network centered on "individuals" even for separate services.

Why we want to achieve

Because it greatly lowers the hurdles of web utilization for "individuals"

• It is easy to increase the number of followers by reaching followers wherever you post
• Stay connected and communicate wherever you post
• Use your own belongings on distributed websites and metaverses
• Further lowering the cost of loan decisions in DeFi
• A human resources database can be built at low cost from web content
• Immediately understand the attributes of project members in DAO

Realization example ①

Turning the whole web into a public community

• Even if you post on different services, it will automatically be reflected on one timeline.�
• No matter which service you post on, your followers will be notified, so you can communicate.

Realization example ②

Build human resources database automatically

Consistent with the direction of Web 3.0

Web 3.0 is aiming for a web centered on "individuals"

• Enables person-to-person transactions without relying on a specific platform
• From a centralized web to a decentralized web and democratizing the web
• Improve machine understanding of data to create open, connected and intelligent websites and web apps (Enabling the Semantic Web)

Current state of the Web (1)

Web centered on "services"

• That site, this site
• Followers over there, followers over here
• Notification over there, notification over here
• It's all my posts here and there, but you get it?

Since user IDs are different for each service, it is not possible to build a network centered on "individuals."

Current state of the Web (1) - 2

People's voices

T.N Female

It is difficult to post the same content on the website, blog and SNS. In particular, my daily posts are short sentences, and I tweet on SNS, but my blog subscribers don't notice.

T.O Male

I contribute coverage articles to media sites, but I can only tell from the name that I have contributed articles to multiple sources and that they are all my articles. Therefore, it is difficult to subscribe across media.

M.W Male

I use YouTube and SNS and hope that they will become fans of my business from there, but I have separate followers on YouTube and SNS, and it is troublesome to send information to each.

I.S Female

I run a YouTube channel and website, but it is very troublesome to notify all fans after posting on YouTube after reflecting it on the website.

Current state of the Web (2)

Inability to distinguish between those who take responsibility and those who do not

• I was slandered by someone whose background I didn't know at all
• I trusted someone whose background I didn't know at all
• Someone whose background I didn't know at all spread lies
• I don't trust the web anymore

▶If they don't know the background of you, they won't believe you

Current State of the Web (2) - 2

Numbers and facts about SNS slander problem

• The number of consultations received at the Consultation Center for Illegal and Harmful Information operated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications tends to remain high. (Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications Japan)
• The number of human rights violation cases related to human rights violation information on the Internet reached a record high in FY2017 (since the current statistics started in 2001), and recorded the second highest number in FY2019 (Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications Japan).
• According to a survey conducted on 770 men and women in their 20s to 60s who use SNS nationwide, nearly 30% of people in their 20s answered that they have been slandered by others on SNS. 7% of the total answered that they have slandered. (BIGLOBE Japan)
• According to a nationwide survey of 1,000 men and women in their 20s to 60s, 16.9% said that celebrities were more likely to be strongly criticized for their remarks and actions than the general public, while 16.9% said that they "can't help it." "I think it can't be helped," said 39.5%. It became clear that just under 60% thought that celebrities were easily criticized. (BIGLOBE Japan)
• When asked whether penalties for slander on SNS should be strengthened for 1,000 men and women in their 20s to 60s nationwide, the most common answer (50.3%) was "I agree", followed by "I somewhat agree". 34.8%, and over 80% of the total think that penalties should be strengthened. (BIGLOBE Japan)

Issues of Web 3.0

Not clear how to "find"

• How can I find a counterparty in person-to-person transactions?
• How to find an object to buy or sell?
• How do we connect and find decentralized data to individuals?

Contradictions in the current state of Web 3.0 (1)

It seems that the problem is solved, but...

• Approach to find trading partners on matching platforms�→ Depends on the specific platform�→ Fear of centralization again

Twitter founder Jack Dorsey warned that venture capitals (VCs) and investors are at the center of the Web3 movement these days, and that if things continue as they are, it will become centralized again. Furthermore, Moxie Merlinspike, the founder of the highly secure messenger app Signal, wrote in her blog early in 2022 that "Current Web3 has more centralization risks than Web2.0" he points out.�https://wired.jp/article/takemura-juku/

Contradictions in the current state of Web 3.0 (2)

It seems that the problem is solved, but...

• An approach to find trading targets on the marketplace (exchange)�→ Depends on the specific platform�→ Fear of centralization again

Contradictions in the current state of Web 3.0 (3)

It seems that the problem is solved, but...

• An approach to finding data in blockchain explorer after putting it on the blockchain�→ All post-type services need to support blockchain, and the cost is high�→ A powerful blockchain search service is required, but processing speed is a major issue�→ The semantic web cannot be realized without linking copyright information, work information, and information about works, but the problem of data size is large.

On Facebook, 4 petabytes of data are added every day (German Statista). Distributed sharing of such huge content is difficult.�https://dcross.impress.co.jp/docs/column/column20170918-1/003155-3.html

​

Bitcoin, which uses PoW, is said to be 7 transactions/second, and Etherium, which uses PoS, is said to be 15-20 transactions/second (tradelog research). That's a big difference from tens of thousands of transactions per second for credit cards and bank transactions. Google searches are also averaging 40,000 transactions per second in 2020 (Statista).�https://dcross.impress.co.jp/docs/column/column20170918-1/003155-3.html

Solution

Applying IDs that identify “individuals” to the web

• Build a mechanism to easily link data distributed on the web to individual ID
• Build a mechanism that can publish trading target data without depending on the platform
• Easily centralize ratings and comments on traded data regardless of platform
• Easily and automatically aggregate copyright information, work information, and information about the work and publish it as a single data so that it can be found by existing search engines such as Google.

Product

An ID that can be used commonly anywhere on the Web = Web Passport = WebPass

WebPass + hitois = new infrastructure

• hitois�It has a mechanism for easily linking data distributed on the Web to individual ID (WebPass ID). Copyright information, work information, and work-related information can be easily and automatically aggregated and published as a single piece of data. However, since automatic collection requires cooperation, the target is limited.
• WebPass�Linking functions can be easily added to simple posting services (bulletin boards, reviews, etc.) that do not have functions for linking with hitois. Evaluations and comments on digital data can be easily centralized regardless of platform.

About WebPass

Work with WPS to store logs and indexes

• WebPass proves ownership of the ID that identifies the poster
• ID is in domain format
• Logs and indexes are stored by WPS (WebPass Service)
• Currently, WPS is only "hitois"
• WebPass features are easy to install on any website

Role of WebPass Service (WPS)

12 months plan

Necessary Expenses

• Development costs�$5,000 x 24 months = $120,000
• Advertising expenses�Video production：12 × $1,500 = $18,000�　　　　　Short version × 6 + Long version × 6 = 12�Web advertisement delivery：$500 × 24ヶ月 = $12,000

Since it is difficult to convey the image with a new concept, we will distribute advertisements centered on usage image videos on video distribution services such as YouTube.

Target fundraising amount

$150,000

Separately from the above, from the fall of 2022, we will issue a unique fan token using blockchain to raise funds for the purpose of stabilizing management and accelerating planning and research.
