THE GEEK PROTOCOL HALL OF THANKS

No Geek
stands alone.

A father’s idea became a world worth building. Kaspa made it possible. People gave it momentum. This is our place to remember who helped us get here.

01 / WHERE POSSIBILITY BEGAN

First, thank you, Kaspa.

To the researchers, developers, miners, node operators and community who keep Kaspa moving: Geek exists because you built something people can build on.

Kaspa’s proof-of-work blockDAG and its open-source ecosystem give Geek a foundation for its Kaspa learning journey and the GEEK KRC-20 token. The work behind that foundation deserves a place at the beginning of our story.

Wherever Geek goes next, we will remember where it started.

02 / HELPING THE ECOSYSTEM BE SEEN

A community to build with.
A world to explore.

07 / A STORY WE ARE STILL WRITING

From index cards
to an open world.

Our tools will change. Our world will grow. The people who helped it begin remain part of the story.

  1. THE SPARK

    A father, a son, a stack of cards.

    Geek began with a simple goal: help a child learn to read and make curiosity worth following.

  2. THE FOUNDATION

    Geek found a home on Kaspa.

    The idea grew into a learning project, a community and GEEK on Kaspa’s KRC-20 ecosystem.

  3. THE WORLD TAKES SHAPE

    GIGA, A.C.E. and a place to belong.

    Lessons, games, characters and saved progress give that original idea more ways to reach curious minds.

  4. THE NEXT CHAPTER

    Built together. Remembered together.

    This hall keeps our thanks in the project’s story. As we add new chapters, we will keep adding the people and contributions that shaped them.

A record we can keep.

The page and its acknowledgments are maintained in Geek’s source repository. Updates have a reviewable history, so earlier chapters can be revisited as the project evolves.

ALL HOPE, NO HYPE.

You helped make
Geek possible.

To Kaspa. To our community. To everyone building, sharing, learning and staying curious.
Thank you for being part of our story.
