Kiwi News
Kiwi covers all crypto-adjacent subjects that smart, curious web3 builders might find interesting - from tech, through economics, game theory, and sociology, up to culture and growth.
Our community reads hundreds of sources per month. Some of them are big news and mainstream Vitalik essays. But some of the most fresh insights can only be found at the edges of the Internet.
On Kiwi you can find niche essays written by people who spend their days researching and coding, and don’t have time for building their audiences.
Kiwi has been built on a Kiwi P2P Protocol. It means that everyone can permissionlessly create a HackerNews- or Reddit-like Kiwi app for their community.
