EpiK Protocol Core Participants

Core Participants in the Epik Protocol Ecosystem
Edutainment by Playing and Interacting with Knowledge (Epik) is an online tool that enables for the quick creation of quizzes and games in a graphical environment.

The Core Participants in EpiK Protocol ecosystems
1. Domain Experts,
2. Bounty Hunters,
3. Knowledge Nodes,
4. Knowledge Gateways.

Domain Experts (DEs)

Are in charge of arranging and evaluating data in the Knowledge Bases (KGs). They also have the power to contribute data to the knowledge graph, but only under strict supervision.

The process of creating knowledge graph data takes time, and Domain Experts sometimes struggle to complete it on their own.

Bounty Hunters (BHs).
Bounty Hunters generate money by collecting knowledge graph data, annotating it, and performing any other tasks that Domain Experts assign.

Knowledge Nodes (KNs)
These are knowledge graph data storage and bandwidth providers who profit from this by supplying data storage and access services. The more money you make, the more data you save; the more money you make, the more data download traffic you get.

Knowledge Gateways
Users can obtain the most recent knowledge graph data using Knowledge Gateways (KGs). They must stake EPK in order to have access to knowledge graph data.

As the demand for knowledge graph data on EpiK rises, Knowledge Gateways and Knowledge Nodes will risk more EPK tokens. As a result, market for EPK tokens increases, as does the worth of EPK tokens.

Epik quiz games can be disseminated using existing LMSs or directly through the Epik platform. However, its quizzes may be done individually or in groups, and they are made up of a series (collection) of interactive scenarios.

Each scenario has a series of questions of the following types: multiple choice, truth or false, and matching. Texts, presentations, pictures, and videos, as well as other didactic materials, may be put on the situations. Learning materials generated on an LMS may be simply imported and reused because to its connection with the LMS.

Designing the EpiK cooperation system, which comprises Domain Experts, Bounty Hunters, Knowledge Miners, and Knowledge Gateways, is one of the challenges that was encountered in this project. The other is to develop the four fundamental capabilities of trustworthy storage, finance, governance, and incentive. Only by defining the fundamental logic will we be able to assure the EpiK ecosystem's long-term viability.
In terms of accomplishments, we reaching the end of the testnet stage, where we have distributed 5 million $epk prizes as of today.

There will be further incentives for pre-mining before the mainnet debut, with 10,000 $epk being awarded each day.
The token price which reflects our community's support has recently increased by 40%. Also, the first product “Knowledge Mainland v1.0” has just recently finished; Hence, the alpha will be available shortly.

The EpiK Protocol's native token, EPK, is used to power the EpiK Token Economy. The EpiK Protocol establishes a collaborative relationship amongst the main participants in the KG network so that they may work together to build a knowledge graph whilst also chasing their own goals.

About EpiK Protocol
The EpiK Protocol is the world's first decentralized AI data storage protocol. It creates a global open autonomous community with four core capabilities of trusted storage, trusted incentives, trusted governance, and trusted finance through the integration of IPFS storage technology, Token incentive mechanism, and DAO governance model, which organizes global community users to work together at a very low management cost and continuously produce high-quality AI data. EpiK Protocol thinks that by broadening AI's horizons and ushering in the era of cognitive intelligence, they may usher in a new era of AI.
