About Nerwo

Nerwo introduces a decentralized work platform where the core of the user's professional identity is anchored to ENS. Our platform stands apart in the Web3 job market landscape by leveraging ENS from the outset to construct Web3 professional identities, aiming to educate users on the vast potential of this protocol in the context of professional identity.

Integrating ENS into Nerwo

At Nerwo, we have embraced ENS as the foundational protocol for building our users’ professional identities. This strategic choice allows us to inherit user data directly from ENS text records, ensuring that their identity exists beyond our platform and is not centrally managed by us. This approach empowers users with full control over their data, offering a level of autonomy and security unique in the job market sector. Moreover, the potential synergy between ENS and Soulbound Tokens (SBTs) can lead to the creation of reliable, transparent on-chain resumes. For those without an ENS domain, Nerwo facilitates the creation of one in a gasless and free manner, further democratizing access to decentralized professional identities.

Current Features of Nerwo

Nerwo already incorporates advanced features essential for a decentralized job platform. These include:

• Escrow services for secure transactions.
• Decentralized dispute resolution to ensure fairness and transparency in dealings.
• On-chain work certifications, providing immutable and verifiable records of professional achievements and qualifications (SBT).

These existing features demonstrate our commitment to not only envisioning a decentralized job market but also actualizing it with functional, user-centric tools.

Vision and Commitment

Our commitment to the principle of "as decentralized as possible" guides every aspect of Nerwo. By integrating ENS, we align our platform with the ethos of Web3, prioritizing user autonomy, data privacy, and a decentralized approach to professional networking. We believe that through Nerwo, we can significantly contribute to the evolution of the job market, making it more secure, transparent, and user-driven.

Project Status

In early December we will release the new site and platform version, which will be available to the public on the Sepolia testnet. In the meantime, you can take a look at our whitepaper: Nerwo Whitepaper (work in progress)

Use of ENS Small Grants Funding

If awarded an ENS Small Grant, we intend to allocate the funds as follows:

Technical Resource Expansion

A significant portion of the ETH grant will be directed toward hiring an additional technical resource. This addition to our team will accelerate the development and enhancement of Nerwo, ensuring faster rollout of new features and improvements.

Marketing and Awareness

A dedicated part of the grant will be invested in marketing resources. This is crucial for increasing awareness about Nerwo, educating potential users about the benefits of our decentralized platform, and expanding our reach within the Web3 community.

Conclusion

Nerwo is at the forefront of reinventing the Web3 job market. Our integration of ENS is a testament to our dedication to building a platform that not only respects user privacy and autonomy but also harnesses the power of decentralized technology to create a more equitable and efficient job marketplace.
