The following are some of the problems with Web 3:
• Traders must manually check trade or liquidation status
• Token holders aren't alerted of upcoming governance proposals
• Lottery winners and ENS expiration are usually found out with a Tweet
Enter EPNS...
The Ethereum Push Notification Service (EPNS), built on Ethereum, has been dubbed the communication layer for Web 3.0. EPNS solves both notification and communication problems.
EPNS Contract V2 features:
• Incentivized notifications for users
• Platform agnostic
• Spam score and throttling
• User-centric and opt-in notifications
EPNS allows users to create channels and send notifications to all subscribers.
The PIP-01: Push Grants Program was a success where 12% of the circulating supply of $PUSH took place in the voting. With a total budget of $1,000,000, PGP is now fully approved to run for two quarters. Learn more on the EPNS Governance Forum: gov.epns.io/
The protocol submitted a grant proposal in December 2021 to Harmony Foundation, which was reviewed and granted $100K early this year. The team will be rolling out EPNS on the Harmony mainnet in Q2 2022: bit.ly/3OvJxBa
Even though push notifications have been with us for over a decade, EPNS is the first protocol to bring them to the Web 3 world. Web 3 will involve a lot of things, and such a service will be essential for the infrastructure of the emerging industry.
