Design Principles

Quest protocol aims to leverage its decentralized infrastructure toward the flourishing of a scalable and composable Reputation data layer on the internet. As an interoperable solution for dApps building upon public networks like Ethereum, Solana, or BNB Chain, Quest protocol fills a key gap that has been missing so far in the Web3 development stack.

While we considered many different designs, the following principles remained core to our philosophy of building a user-centric and utility-driven protocol:

• Self-Sovereignty Users own their data and have autonomy over how, where, and for what their data is used.

• Interoperability & Portability Different blockchain networks do not hinder the user. Users can take their data with them across different networks and platforms.

• Mutability In an authentic digital social experience, users need to make frequent updates to their social data at little or no cost.

• Composability Developers can easily utilize the data layers with their existing Web3 development stack and leverage network effects. In addition, developers can define customizable modules based on existing modules to extend their specific use cases.
