Our online and onchain worlds are filled with both genuine and deceptive information. We need a common way we can trust the authenticity of information and safety of our interactions. Anytime you need to prove or verify something, attestations will play a critical role. EAS is a standard and base layer where any entity can make attestations about anything. This primitive and ledger of attestations will help us decentralize more than just money and assets. We'll be able to coordinate and build reputation systems, voting systems, governance systems, decentralized social media, provenance of goods, knowledge and social graphs, and much much more.
