Same here. Why should I contribute to Golden for free, where people have to pay to make queries, when I can do the same with Wikidata, which is queryable by anyone?
- judegomila 8y agoJude from Golden here. Good question. We are opening up useful queries over time for users eg https://golden.com/y-combinator-w19-companies/ https://golden.com/y-combinator-w19-companies/ Future paid/business tools will include using our AI assisted editor for private companies, private storage of their knowledge so we can continue to open up more queries to the public. Our north star is to get to a more open knowledge base than what is currently available. Also here are all the cryptocurrency projects that have whitepapers https://golden.com/cryptocurrency-whitepapers/ https://golden.com/cryptocurrency-whitepapers/
- hk__2 8y agoGiven than Wikidata is published under a CC 0 licence there’s nothing preventing Golden from using it as a knowledge source. Unless Golden provides a better editor experience I see no reason for anyone to contribute to Golden rather than Wikidata.

Both licenses are copyleft licenses; CC0 is more permissive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reusing_Wikipedia_content https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reusing_Wikipedia_co...
- yorwba 8y agoParts of Wikipedia articles (e.g. some infoboxes [1]) are actually sourced from Wikidata, which is licensed under CC0 [2] [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_person/Wikidata https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_person/Wikida...

- hk__2 8y agoYes, but I’m talking about Wikidata (CC0), not Wikipedia (CC-BY-SA).
- jake-low 8y agoWhoops, I misread your comment! Sorry about that.
