Iagon launches a brand new document ecosystem Agora

Iagon officially launches its new document ecosystem "Agora". The name is derived from ancient Greece, meaning a public gathering place, symbolizing the birthplace of democracy. This name was chosen because the system shares many similarities with the meaning of Agora. The Agora protocol will serve as a public document management system, where all uploaded files are visible to everyone, and their storage status is permanent and time-stamped, ultimately to be managed autonomously by the community. In short, the Agora platform will enable all users to share various content files with each other.

Application Steps Overview

The first iteration of Agora will focus on NFTs, allowing individuals and businesses to publish creative content. The initial application will be used for beta testing of the platform, and the number of content files will be limited to test the system's scalability and the community's management capabilities.

Users only need to bind their Cardano wallet with the Agora protocol to use the file management system, which will be upgraded in the future to a complete NFT marketplace. Users can showcase and share their content or engage in buying and selling. At the basic level, user identities will remain pseudonymous, with only the wallet's public address visible to the outside.

To maintain decentralized characteristics, KYC compliance steps are not mandatory, but users can choose to undergo KYC verification to prove the authenticity of the content. This helps other users identify the reliability of the content and adds legal protection for uploaded content. The KYC compliance program will be launched after beta testing.

AI-driven Community Protection Solutions

After the completion of the Beta version, the Agora platform will add more features and open up to a broader user base. New features will include content files in more formats and community commenting functionality.

To address the potential occurrence of "illegal" or "offensive" content, the Iagon team has designed social and technical mechanisms available to the community to reduce the likelihood of interaction with such content.

Technically, a dual AI-driven solution will be provided to identify content or comments that do not meet community predefined standards. This AI system will automatically identify and isolate these files. Like all AI solutions, the system will go through an iterative trial-and-error phase. Subsequently, two social mechanisms, "Agora Reputation Score" and "Illegal Content Isolation," will be introduced.

Agora Reputation Score (ARS)

Agora Reputation Score (ARS) consists of two parts:

• When user behavior is upright and proactive, credit scores increase
• When user behavior is inappropriate, the credibility score decreases.

Each registered user will receive an initial value of 0 ARS, which will increase or decrease based on different activity types:

• Upload files: Adjust scores based on the appropriateness of the content.
• File Management: Encourage long-term retention of content
• Voting: Encourage participation while preventing abnormal behavior
• View Document: Reward Participation

Based on the ARS score, users will be classified into levels, each level comes with corresponding benefits such as exclusive access, premium content subscriptions, and discounts.

Isolation of Illegal Content

All content is subject to ongoing review by the community and AI-driven solutions. "Suspicious" content flagged by AI will be removed from public sharing status. The platform will establish a "Review Committee" that has the decision-making power to handle isolated files. Committee members must pass KYC verification and be at least 21 years old to comply with relevant regulations and protect minors.

The Goal of Agora

Agora aims to become a community-driven social engagement platform, ultimately evolving into a fully functional NFT trading marketplace. It will serve as a decentralized hub for user interaction, content sharing, and creativity.

It is worth noting that the above description is just a rough overview of the system structure, and the final version may be adjusted based on community suggestions. Agora will be an organically developed community platform, and its future depends on user feedback.
