Company profile
researched Aug 2026RSS3 is a project building products and open infrastructure intended to keep public web information portable and readable. Its own site organizes the work into three parts: Folo, a reading application that consolidates scattered sources into a single timeline framed around attention rather than notifications; RSSHub, a long-running open-source layer that converts additional web sources into RSS feeds and is described by the company as one of the world's largest RSS networks, comprising a route system, instances and public infrastructure; and $RSS3, a token described as linking the project's infrastructure, applications and ecosystem and giving contributors, developers and users a shared stake [0][1].
Earlier public documentation describes RSS3 as a decentralized, open-source information syndication protocol and a web3 feed standard that exposes updates of on-chain activity in a standardized, machine- and human-readable JSON structure, allowing users to track many blockchain addresses in one feed aggregator. The stated aim was to build an information-syndication ecosystem as an alternative to centralized Web 2.0 distribution, with an open protocol on which third parties can build decentralized applications. The design was said to be inspired by RSS conceptually rather than technically derived from it [3].
The RSS3-Network GitHub organization hosts roughly 71 repositories, including a Whitepaper repository defining the architecture of the RSS3 Network and its tokenomics, an RSS3 Evolution Proposals (REPs) repository, the Protocol repository for structuring open information for interoperability, a Node implementation in Go, a Global Indexer, Solidity network contracts, an MCP server, Terraform/Helm deployment tooling and forks of optimism and op-geth [2].
