San Francisco, California — The Graph is taking a giant leap in the evolution of Web3 with the introduction of Geo Genesis, a revolutionary platform designed to decentralize and organize knowledge within the digital ecosystem. Geo Genesis empowers anyone, regardless of their technical background, to participate in the creation, management, and governance of Spaces—collaborative hubs that facilitate sharing and organizing knowledge on Web3 rails.

Founded with the vision to structure and distribute knowledge on decentralized networks, The Graph has spent years refining its technology. This vision is now a reality, thanks to advancements like the GRC-20 data standard. With Geo Genesis, The Graph is reshaping the future of decentralized applications by focusing not only on assets but also on knowledge sharing.
What is Geo Genesis?
Geo Genesis is a user-friendly Web3 application designed to let individuals create and manage knowledge hubs directly on The Graph. The platform's key feature, Spaces, allows communities to gather, share, and govern knowledge collaboratively. Built with modular tools like Aragon OSx, Geo supports decentralized governance and ensures that communities can make collective decisions at scale.
Over time, users will be able to customize the governance of their spaces, laying the foundation for interconnected, reusable knowledge that's open, verifiable, and composable.
Importantly, Geo is designed for accessibility—it's built for everyone, not just developers.
This means that anyone can contribute to the organization of knowledge in Web3, opening up new opportunities for broader community engagement.
Knowledge Graphs Are the Heart of Web3
According to Yaniv Tal, co-founder of The Graph and founder of Geo, Web3’s core is all about information. Geo Genesis represents a pivotal moment in this transformation, with knowledge being organized into dynamic, interconnected knowledge graphs.
The introduction of the GRC-20 standard takes this a step further by offering a unified framework that enhances interoperability, adaptability, and composability across decentralized applications. With this innovation, knowledge spaces will evolve in real time to meet the ever-changing needs of their communities.
The Road Ahead
Geo Genesis is now available for early access, featuring a default governance model with two primary roles: Editors and Members. Editors are the decision-makers who vote on governance issues, while Members contribute to a space’s content.
During this stage, users can request invites to join and create initial spaces. Anyone can browse the available knowledge graphs to see what has been added and understand how governance functions.
At launch, an initial set of Editors will curate Crypto News as a demonstration of how knowledge graphs can be used to more effectively structure news stories and facts. Over time, users will gain the ability to fully customize their governance processes, making Geo a flexible platform for a wide range of knowledge-sharing applications.

About The Graph
The Graph is the backbone of decentralized data for Web3, providing the infrastructure that powers indexing and querying of blockchain data. Since its launch in 2018, it has become a critical tool for developers across 80+ blockchains, including Ethereum, Polygon, Avalanche, and many others. The Graph has already enabled the creation of thousands of subgraphs that power decentralized applications, facilitating access to data across the decentralized internet.
As Web3 grows, The Graph is expanding its vision to support new data services, query languages, and more use cases, ensuring its platform remains adaptable and future-proof.
