EPNS to gamify the stone age era of communication for Web3 Projects.
In an official press statement, Harsh Rajat at EPNS said,
“Notifications are a basic necessity for dApps and smart contracts and
should not be an option for a popular smart contract, but a communication
layer that should be accessible to everyone. This is the crucial missing piece
of web3 infrastructure that will enable adoption. Innovation drives enthusi-
asts but adoption needs user ease and engagement. We are truly grateful
and happy to have the funding that will go into building the world’s first de-
centralized notification protocol!”
