# Descout > An independent newsroom for the people and projects worth knowing across web3 — neutral, sourced, and kept current. Descout is an independent newsroom covering web3 ecosystems — neutral, sourced situational awareness on the projects, people, and markets that move a chain, across Abstract, Base, Ethereum, and beyond. We provide: - Breaking news and market updates - In-depth analysis and guides - A comprehensive glossary of ecosystem entities (projects, tokens, NFTs, people, organizations) - Real-time market data for tokens and NFT collections ## Site Structure ### Main Sections - [Home](https://descout.xyz/) - Latest news and featured content - [Breaking News](https://descout.xyz/breaking/) - Time-sensitive announcements and updates - [News](https://descout.xyz/news/) - News articles and coverage - [Analysis](https://descout.xyz/analysis/) - In-depth analysis pieces - [Guides](https://descout.xyz/guides/) - Educational content and how-tos - [Daily Recap](https://descout.xyz/daily/) - Daily ecosystem summaries - [Market](https://descout.xyz/market/) - Token prices and market data - [Tags](https://descout.xyz/tags/) - Browse all topics and entities ### Data APIs These endpoints return structured JSON data suitable for AI consumption: - [/api/ai/entities](https://descout.xyz/api/ai/entities) - All ecosystem entities (people, projects, tokens, etc.) - [/api/ai/glossary](https://descout.xyz/api/ai/glossary) - Glossary entries with full definitions - [/api/ai/news](https://descout.xyz/api/ai/news) - Recent news articles - [/api/ai/breaking](https://descout.xyz/api/ai/breaking) - Recent breaking news - [/api/ai/market](https://descout.xyz/api/ai/market) - Current market data - [/api/ai/daily](https://descout.xyz/api/ai/daily) - Recent daily recaps - https://descout.xyz/api/entity/{slug}/open-questions - Per-entity open questions — what we can't yet conclude about an entity, by whom/from where it's known, and the candidate sources that would close each gap (the Incompleteness Oracle). - https://descout.xyz/api/public/open-questions - Board-level open questions across the whole entity graph (the Incompleteness Oracle, JSON mirror of /open-questions). Confirmed answers shown as content; proposed answers shown only as a count. Optional ?type=, ?status=, ?limit=. - https://descout.xyz/api/public/contributors - Agent-excluded contributor closures — people credited with confirmed answers that closed gaps in the record (a record of closures, not a ranking; recognition only; no trust-weight; links only to internal profiles). - https://descout.xyz/api/public/manifest - Discovery manifest: a machine-readable capability list of these agent-callable surfaces. - https://descout.xyz/okf - Open Knowledge Format (OKF) bundle: the entity graph published as OKF concept files (markdown + YAML frontmatter). Typed relationships and per-section source receipts ride as x-descout-* extension keys. The bundle index lists every entity concept; each is served at https://descout.xyz/okf/entity/{slug}. - https://descout.xyz/api/receipts/{type}/{id} - Fetchable provenance receipt for ONE published piece ({type} = article | breaking; {id} is the content doc id, carried as receiptUrl in /api/ai/news and /api/ai/breaking). Versioned JSON: the producer lane, the publish-transition trail, and any human review verdict or correction behind the piece. Absence is meaningful — a field appears ONLY when a record backs it (a missing reviewedBy means no provable human verdict, not "checked and none"). A receipt exists only for a currently-published, public piece; every other state (draft, scheduled, hidden, deleted, or nonexistent) returns an identical 404 that does not reveal whether the id exists. - https://descout.xyz/tags/feed.xml?tags={a,b}&chain={chain}&kinds={articles,beats,daily} - Composable RSS feed: merge up to 5 entities (?tags=), scope by chain/lens (?chain=), and pick item kinds (?kinds=articles,beats,daily; default articles+beats). Each item is a pointer + pulse — headline, summary, and a canonical link back to the record — never full body text. Human builder at https://descout.xyz/feeds. Syndication: cite with attribution and a link; bulk republication of full articles isn't licensed. - https://descout.xyz/open-questions/{id} - Permalink for ONE open question — its research thread, origin piece, and (when resolved) the closing source. Carries schema.org Question JSON-LD; a confirmed answer appears as acceptedAnswer, a proposed one never does. ### Entity monitoring status Every entity carries a monitoring lifecycle — "are we still actively observing this entity?" — surfaced as `monitoringState` in /api/ai/entities and as `x-descout-monitoring` in the OKF concept files. It is NOT a judgment of the entity; it tells an AI consumer how current the record is: - `live` — actively observed. The default; the record is being kept current. - `dormant` — monitoring is cost-paused but reversible (no new signal lately). The record is preserved and still correct as of its last update; a fresh signal returns it to `live`. - `archived` — a deliberate, terminal wind-down (the entity has sunset). The record is a historical snapshot: read it as of its last-updated date, not as current status. When non-live, the record also carries `lastMonitoredAt` (when we last looked) and a short `reason`. Absent/legacy values read as `live`. ## Glossary / Entity Directory ### People (51 entries) - [ BEN.ZZZ (cyberpunk)](https://descout.xyz/tags/cyberpunk/) - Founder of Cambria, building high-stakes “risk-to-earn” MMOs inspired by RuneScape and powered by Ronin and Abstract. - [0xDith](https://descout.xyz/tags/0xdith/) - Co-founder of Gigaverse, the crypto RPG on Abstract, and of GLHFers, the Ethereum gaming community it grew out of.
