Question 1

What is KGeN?

Accepted Answer

KGeN (Knowledge Generation Network) is a decentralised engagement and reputation protocol designed to onboard millions of micro-communities from emerging markets into Web3, gaming, artificial intelligence, and decentralised finance ecosystems. Founded in 2022, it introduces a verifiable distribution and reputation model through its proprietary P.O.G. Engine (Proof of Generation), which quantifies and verifies user behaviour, skill, and social activity across multiple platforms. The system enables users, developers, and publishers to participate in data ownership, value sharing, and reward distribution through the KGeN Oracle Network.

At its core, KGeN creates a trust layer for user-generated data using a set of “Proof” metrics — Proof of Human, Proof of Engagement, Proof of Skill, Proof of Commerce, and Proof of Network. These reputation attributes form a composable P.O.G. Score, a verifiable profile that can be used by applications, games, and businesses to optimise user acquisition, retention, and engagement strategies. The framework is designed to serve as a foundational data infrastructure for developers, allowing them to access and monetise verified behavioural data with user consent.

Question 2

What is the KGeN Token (KGEN)?

Accepted Answer

KGEN is the native utility and governance token of the KGeN ecosystem. It fuels the protocol’s reputation economy, oracle operations, and application-level integrations. Token functions include:

- **Governance:** Holders can vote on network proposals, parameters, and allocation models within the KGeN ecosystem.  
- **Network Operations:** KGEN is used to facilitate gas payments, validation processes, and oracle computation within the KGeN Oracle Network.  
- **Staking:** Node operators and keyholders stake KGEN to participate in validation, earning rewards based on uptime, accuracy, and performance metrics.  
- **Access to Services:** Developers and businesses use KGEN to access the KGeN Engine’s APIs, data services, and integration features across games, e-commerce platforms, and Web3 applications.  
- **Ecosystem Incentives:** Token rewards encourage accurate oracle computation, user engagement, and participation in governance.

KGeN also supports an r-KGEN token used for rewarding early contributors, oracle operators, and marketing participants. It will be converted to KGEN on a one-to-one basis following full mainnet deployment.

Question 3

The P.O.G. Engine

Accepted Answer

The **Proof of Generation (P.O.G.) Engine** is the data and identity layer of KGeN. It builds dynamic user profiles across five verifiable dimensions:

1. **Proof of Human (PoH):** Confirms that a user is an authentic human through verifiable identifiers and peer authentication.  
2. **Proof of Engagement (PoE):** Tracks the depth and consistency of a user’s participation within applications, games, and the wider KGeN ecosystem.  
3. **Proof of Skill (PoS):** Quantifies skill levels based on achievements, performance in tournaments, and proficiency in different engagement genres.  
4. **Proof of Commerce (PoC):** Measures commercial activity and spending behaviour within KGeN and integrated partner ecosystems.  
5. **Proof of Network (PoN):** Evaluates the user’s social graph, influence, and community participation across the network.

Each attribute feeds into the P.O.G. Score, which acts as a verifiable, dynamic identity metric stored via smart contracts. This identity is represented as a Soulbound Token (SBT), a non-transferable NFT that reflects the user’s engagement history and reputation. The P.O.G. Score evolves continuously, allowing users to monetise their verified participation while maintaining full data ownership and privacy.

Question 4

KGeN Oracle Network

Accepted Answer

The KGeN Oracle Network forms the backbone of the reputation infrastructure. It is responsible for data aggregation, validation, and submission of verified scores to the blockchain. Oracles operate through a Proof of Authority model initially and transition to Proof of Stake after three years.

Each oracle node fetches user data from verified APIs, computes P.O.G. Scores, and submits them to the Aptos blockchain. Oracles sign their computations cryptographically, ensuring integrity and transparency. Approved operators receive non-fungible oracle keys, representing their validation rights and staking commitments.

The consensus mechanism uses asymmetric cryptography (ECDSA/Ed25519) and Aptos’ Byzantine Fault Tolerant consensus, requiring at least 67% oracle agreement to finalise computations. Oracle operators are rewarded based on staked value, performance, and uptime, following a defined reward formula.

The Oracle Network is multi-chain compatible, supporting Ethereum and Aptos for key operations and validation, ensuring interoperability across ecosystems.

Question 5

Kratos Engagement Platform

Accepted Answer

The **Kratos Platform** is KGeN’s user-facing layer, integrating engagement, e-commerce, and gamified participation. It bridges developers, publishers, and communities by transforming user reputation into tangible value. Core features include:

- **K-Quest:** A gamified task system enabling users to complete quests and earn rewards.  
- **K-Clan:** A decentralised micro-community structure that groups users into DAOs based on interests or geographic focus.  
- **K-Drop:** A quest-based reward distribution mechanism validated through real-time APIs.  
- **KLASH:** Competitive tournaments and events for communities to showcase skill and gain rewards.

These products work in synergy with the P.O.G. Engine, allowing verified users to participate in campaigns, earn rewards, and grow their reputation within decentralised social and gaming ecosystems.

Question 6

KStore

Accepted Answer

The KStore acts as a Web3 marketplace for digital assets, operating across Web2 and Web3 environments. It facilitates peer-to-peer and peer-to-market transactions, supporting cryptocurrencies and fiat integration. Each item is recorded as an NFT with associated P.O.G. metadata.

The store supports economic symmetry by linking spending behaviour, loyalty, and reward cycles. Advertisers and publishers can monetise engagement data ethically through smart contracts that split revenue between the user and the platform.

Question 7

Who created KGeN?

Accepted Answer

KGeN was founded by Prashant Agarwal, Shaan Gupta, and Shishir Sharma, with contributions from the KGeN Elder Council, a multidisciplinary team specialising in Web3, data infrastructure, gaming, and AI. The project has been operational since 2022 and has built strategic partnerships across emerging markets, including India, MENA, LATAM, and Southeast Asia, with a focus on onboarding developers and micro-communities to decentralised infrastructure.
