Tribes

Tribes (Tribes Protocol, Inc.) is a web3-native social wallet and messaging application that lets people co-own and manage digital assets together while communicating directly from within the wallet itself. Its "co-wallets" combine group messaging and shared custody so crypto communities, creators, and DAOs can coordinate and make decisions without relying on external tools like Discord or Twitter. Founded by former Coinbase engineer Hish Bouabdallah, Tribes raised a $3.3M pre-seed round in January 2023 led by Kindred Ventures, with South Park Commons and Script Capital. It is a consumer crypto product; its public code surface is the tribes-protocol GitHub organization (smart-contract libraries and tooling) rather than a hosted REST/GraphQL developer API.

Tribes is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Web3, Crypto, Wallets, and Messaging.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/tribes: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →
