About MetaBlox
MetaBlox represents a pioneering protocol that empowers users to seamlessly traverse public WiFi networks using their decentralized identifiers (DIDs) and corresponding verifiable credentials (VCs). By doing so, it establishes a unified global WiFi OpenRoaming network, seamlessly interlinking distinct WiFi networks. This approach eliminates the tiresome cycle of repeated log-ins, reconnecting, password sharing, and redundant registrations that users currently contend with during local or international travels. The VC/DID-based Web3.0 WiFi credential is MetaBlox's secret sauce. It allows token incentivization to kick off the flywheel whose logic governs the deployment and expansion of the worldwide decentralized wireless access network.
The integration of MetaBlox heralds the streamlined adoption of cutting-edge Passpoint™ and OpenRoaming™ technologies. Originally conceived by the global WiFi industry for enterprise use, these technologies are poised to assume a pivotal role in the 5G rollout and the alleviation of cellular traffic. MetaBlox strategically enhances adoption across three key dimensions: optimizing the service provisioning process, reducing deployment obstacles, and broadening the user base. Crucially, the MetaBlox network harmonizes with stringent privacy protocols and regulatory standards, cultivating an environment conducive to the proliferation of Web3.0 native applications and users.
