ARCA DAO's logo

ARCA, a community-governed DAO that is developing and expanding the Arweave ecosystem, project, and network. They have recently secured funding for the second stage of their independent gateway, and this stage includes an open-source implementation of the new / graphql endpoint, amongst other features. ARCA is also on the cusp of firing up an initial test AuthNode in conjunction with the ArVerify project. ArVerify is a means of associating your true identity with your wallet address and ARCA will be set as the first 3rd party AuthNode. The AuthNode is like an Oracle for authenticating via various methods. The initial test node will verify users through their Google account, but many other verification methods are planned — Implementation is currently in progress.
