By nature, decentralized technologies such as those enabled by the blockchain connect people from around the world, yet this connection has yet to be made social. The world currently lacks a single, consolidated place for people to gather, discuss, and process crypto-asset information. The Tela Network Foundation aims to create Hilo, a community that socially aggregates crypto-asset knowledge. Accessible to anyone interested in cryptocurrency investment, from beginners to experts to influencers, Hilo is a social network that fosters positive peer engagement, trusted peer discussion, and expert mentorship.
