Benefits
The protocol, enhanced with Zero Knowledge Proofs (ZKP), offers a wide range of benefits for all parties involved. The communities gain a sustainable business model and a strategy to attract professionals. Professionals obtain Proof of Resume, community benefits and, in cases of DAOs, a stake in the community. Contractors gain a tool for efficient hiring and management, all while ensuring data privacy and security.
In essence, the Kyōdō Protocol offers a unique alternative to the traditional hiring process.
