+Developed by [[Bluesky]]
+
+> The AT Protocol is a networking technology created to power the next generation of social applications. The initial reference application, [bsky.app](https://bsky.app/),provides a global-scale microblogging experience.
+
+## Protocol Overview
+
+> The **Authenticated Transfer Protocol**, aka **atproto**, is a federated protocol for large-scale distributed social applications. This document will introduce you to the ideas behind the AT Protocol.
+
+From the [Protocol Overview](https://atproto.com/guides/overview)
+
+## Specification
+
+> The Authenticated Transfer Protocol (AT Protocol or atproto) is a generic federated protocol for building open social media applications. Some recurring themes and features are:
+>
+> - self-authenticating data and identity, allowing seamless account migrations and redistribution of content
+> - design for "big world" use cases, scaling to billions of accounts
+> - delegated authority over application-layer schemas and aggregation infrastructure
+> - re-use of existing data models from the dweb protocol family and network primitives from the web platform

+> **The Noosphere Protocol** is part of an effort to bootstrap a new kind of content web. Noosphere, like its namesake, is a worldwide medium for thinking together.
+
+
+
+The open source back end protocol powering the [[Subconscious]] app. The [Subconscious Noosphere Discord chat server](https://discord.gg/wyHPzGraBh) is one of my favourite place for learning and discussion.
+
+> Noosphere draws from the same foundational ideas as [[IPFS]], [[ActivityPub]], [[ATProtocol]], [[Nostr]] and other protocols. But, it distinguishes itself in meaningful ways:
+>
+> * Users truly own and control their data, even when infrastructure providers become adversaries
+> * All operations are local-first and work offline
+> * Infrastructure providers trust users, not the other way around
+> * There is no blockchain, central authority or other built-in, global source of truth
