Call for Input on the Desirable Properties of a Meta-Layer

Click the image below to access the 100% onchain Call for Input on the Desirable Properties of a Meta-Layer. 

 

Deadline: June 30th, 2025 at 11:59p PST
 

As we embark on building the Meta-Layer, the foundation for a new internet infrastructure, we recognize the importance of ensuring that it meets the needs and expectations of diverse communities. That's why we are extending an open Call for Input on the list of desirable properties for the Meta-Layer. These properties will be critical to shaping the essay, which will serve as the guiding vision for the Meta-Layer's development.
 

This is your opportunity to contribute to the future of the internet. Whether you’re passionate about privacy, security, collaboration, or creativity, we welcome your ideas. Your insights will help define how the Meta-Layer operates—addressing technical, ethical, and community-centric concerns. Our goal is to ensure that the essay reflects the perspectives of all stakeholders and ultimately drives the creation of technology that serves everyone.
 

We invite written contributions through June 2025. Every participant who contributes a meaningful idea will be recognized both online and on-chain and will receive a unique digital badge commemorating their contribution to this historic project.

Where To Start

When considering desirable properties for the Meta-Layer, think about the fundamental characteristics that would make this layer valuable and practical for users, developers, and communities alike. Here are a few prompts to help guide your thinking:

 

  • Transcend Limitations: What current limitations do you face when interacting online? Are there specific actions, collaborations, or interactions you wish were possible but aren’t? Consider how a new layer above the web could enhance your experience.
     

  • User Experience: What features would make the Meta-Layer feel intuitive, seamless, and enjoyable? Think about ease of navigation, personalization, and accessibility.
     

  • Feeling Safe and Secure: What would make you feel safe and confident while interacting in the Meta-Layer? Consider safeguards, community standards, or design features that ensure fair and respectful interactions.

  • Decentralized Ownership and Control: How can we give users more control over their online experience while promoting a sense of community?
     

  • Context and Collaboration: How can the Meta-Layer help users engage more deeply with content, enabling better collaboration across platforms?
     

  • Future Visions: If the Meta-Layer existed today, what kinds of overlay applications, smart tags, or meta-communities would you build to make the web more useful, safe, or collaborative?
