Global Events
- Ontology — The ONLY Decentralized Identity Partner for Binance Smart Chain. Ontology and Binance have a long history of working closely together — a fruitful, mutually beneficial cooperation. The integration of Ontology’s Decentralized Identity Solution into the Binance Smart Chain is the latest in our collaborative efforts, further strengthening the ties between the two companies. The symbiotic relationship sees Ontology and ONT ID as the sole partner for BSC in terms of providing a truly decentralized identity option and KYC user verification.

Data Regulation In 2021: More Small Steps Or A Giant Leap?
By Li Jun, Founder of Ontology
We are living through an activist period of data regulation that will dictate how our economies function for generations to come. Data regulation is being designed from first principles before our very eyes. It draws from notions of individual privacy, and is heavily influenced by world events from national security regulation following 9/11 to a reckoning on data collection in the aftermath of the 2016 US presidential election. Technical considerations are also feeding into regulation, in particular the ability of machine learning technology to help with medical treatment or predict crime using ever larger data sets.
ONT ID is a framework for decentralized identity, built on the Ontology blockchain and integrated with the Binance Smart Chain. So any user, developer, or project launching STO’s will have access to fully integrate the benefits of ONT ID and with it, decentralized identity, into their existing developments. We are looking forward to witnessing the wider use of ONT ID, providing any entity with a digital identity that is controlled by the entity through decentralization.
