Cortex App Project Receives Polygon Developer Grant to Build Open Metaverse
BOULDER, Colo., Nov. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — YouBase, Inc., the creator of the Cortex App Project (http://crtx.app) has received a BUILD Grant via the Polygon Developer Support Program to build Web3 and open metaverse solutions on the Polygon and Ethereum Blockchain Ecosystems. Cortex is a new application that will make it simple to build crypto into every page on the web, creating a solid foundation for Web3 and emerging metaverse applications.
Leonard Kish, CEO and Co-founder of YouBase and Cortex App says:
“Our goal at Cortex is to allow anyone to achieve the benefits of Web3 and build their own metaverse. Cortex will let users control their entire Web3 presence including, tokens, data, social relationships, web properties, and even public/private data infrastructure. For developers, we are bringing a consistent structure to the metaverse with decentralized domains, identities, URLs, and data in one place. By building on Polygon, our community will have the flexibility to tokenize and transact at very low cost.”
Ishan Negi, NFT/Gaming Lead at Polygon (http://polygon.technology) says:
“We are proud to support the development and launch of Cortex. Cortex is building easy-to-use tools for anyone to build a Web3 presence that is owned by the users, creating their own part of the metaverse. The Cortex application and the human-readable wallet URLs together have the potential to play a major role in easing the transition to Web3 for everyone, with new use cases on-chain, off-chain, and across chains.”
Josh Robinson, CTO and Co-founder of YouBase and Cortex App says:
“Polygon, with its low-cost transactions, high scalability, and simple Ethereum integration, is the natural choice to allow users to interact with Web3 in many new ways. We have already moved some DNS contracts onto Polygon with Butterfly Protocol to create a cross-chain Web3 DNS environment. This is just the start to what we will be launching on Polygon in the coming months.”
Decentralized Domain Name Systems (DNSs) are web domains managed by smart contracts on blockchains rather than centralized DNS servers of the legacy web. Having Cortex on Polygon will be another step toward coordinating domain names across blockchain chains like Ethereum and Cardano. Cortex application makes it simple to create pages, browse and interact in an environment where every page is also a crypto wallet address. This is a major step in unlocking the power of Web3 across chains.
