Blockchain Twitter App Launches to Bring Decentralized Social to the Masses

Published

on

Los Angeles, CA, 5th October, 2022, Chainwire

Takeaways:

  • A novel web3 social platform called Diamond is launching on DeSo, a new blockchain that has raised $200 million from Coinbase, Sequoia, and Andreessen Horowitz.
  • Diamond is the first product ever to enable all posts, profiles, social graphs, and content to be hosted on a decentralized censorship-resistant blockchain.
  • Posts on Diamond can be minted as NFTs, earn crypto tips, and other novel features. 

Today, content is hosted on centralized platforms like Twitter, TikTok, or Instagram. Many thought leaders like Elon Musk and even Twitter founder Jack Dorsey call for an alternative.

Recently, messages emerged between the two billionaire entrepreneurs regarding a blockchain-based social media platform.

“I have an idea for a blockchain social media system that does both payments and short text messages/links like Twitter.” Said Elon Musk in one text exchange.
He continued, “Third piece is a twitter-like app on your phone that accesses the database in the cloud. This could be massive.”

However, Musk may not need to create a decentralized Twitter alternative thanks to the launch of Diamond, a Web3 social app powered by the DeSo blockchain.

Diamond is the first platform ever to host its content and social graph on a decentralized blockchain.

By publishing content to the DeSo chain, writers, and creators can own and control their content the same way they own and control their Bitcoin. This means they can be free from censorship and gain new ways to monetize that have never been possible before.

For example, posts on Diamond can be minted as NFTs, can earn crypto tips, and much more. Creators on Diamond can very easily launch social tokens that allow their followers to invest in their success. All with an onboarding that is as easy as creating an account on a web2 platform like Instagram.

Diamond’s choice to use the DeSo blockchain for hosting all of its content showcases DeSo’s unique strength in content storage. “Existing blockchains cannot store content efficiently,” says Nader Al-Naji, the founder of DeSo. “It costs about $50 to store a 200-character Tweet on Ethereum, and about fifteen cents to store it on Solana, Avalanche, or Polygon. In contrast, DeSo is one ten-thousandth of a cent, making it the first blockchain capable of disrupting storage-heavy applications like social, blogging, and even marketplaces,” he says.

In addition, Diamond’s integration of the DeSo wallet makes it possible to onboard Ethereum 

users as well as mainstream users. “The DeSo wallet supports both a one-click Google login and a one-click MetaMask login,” says Al-Naji. “It’s not our goal to be tied to a single chain, or really any chain. We just want to allow people to connect with each other no matter what ecosystem they’re a part of. DeSo is the unified social layer for all of web3,” he says.

This is the latest in a recent string of successes for DeSo. The platform listed on Coinbase earlier this year announced a groundbreaking MetaMask integration last week that has caused a significant price surge. It has also been experiencing a recent surge in user numbers.

In a world where many are dissatisfied with traditional social media, Diamond and DeSo offer a decentralized solution that can finally compete with web2 juggernauts. “DeSo is the first and only blockchain that allows developers to build social apps where you can’t even tell you’re on a blockchain,” says Al-Naji. “That means, for the first time, we have a shot at finally expanding web3 from disrupting finance to disrupting the trillion-dollar social media industry.”

About DeSo Foundation

DeSo is a new layer-1 blockchain built from the ground up to decentralize social media and scale storage-heavy applications to billions of users. They raised $200 million and are backed by Sequoia, Andreessen Horowitz, Coinbase Ventures, Social Capital, Polychain Capital, Winkelvoss Capital, Pantera, and others.

$DESO, the native currency of the DeSo blockchain, is listed on Coinbase.

Press Release

Web3 Builders Look to Alternate Growth Model with BNB Chain as Bear Market Funding Drops by 84%

Published

on

DUBAI, UAE, November 23rd, 2023, Chainwire

BNB Chain, the community-driven blockchain ecosystem that includes the world’s largest smart contract blockchain, is highlighting the compelling growth stories of the projects that emerge from its project development program, starting with its hackathons. This comes in the wake of BNB Chain’s Istanbul Hackathon, which saw the emergence of a number of strong projects.

The focus of the bear market is building quality Web3 projects – this is a time for developers to concentrate on identifying what real use cases need solving. However, quarterly funding for Web3 startups has dropped by approximately 84% this year. Against this backdrop, thousands of founders have looked to alternate ways to develop their projects to the point of launch readiness.

By providing constant guidance, in addition to routinely incentivising innovation with its global hackathons, BNB Chain mentors these projects through the various stages of their development journeys as they strive to realize the immense potential of Web3. 

Below are the steps that projects can expect to partner with BNB Chain on as they work to realize their vision:

  1. Ideate and develop a killer idea at a BNB Chain hackathon
  2. Win a reward at the hackathon that allows for initial development
  3. Develop further with constant guidance from BNB Chain
  4. Get introduced to incubators who can supercharge your project
  5. Launch your project on-chain 

BNB Chain Hackathon winners also receive referral codes to apply to the Most Valuable Builder (MVB) to potentially increase their funding. The program – run by BNB Chain and Binance Labs – helps projects develop and grow through mentorship, funding and network support*.

BNB Chain’s recent Istanbul Hackathon saw a number of exciting projects start on this journey, with a number of the winners sharing how they plan to utilize their winnings to advance their projects. 

MoveSpace, an on-chain data labeling and marketplace powered by a vector database, is addressing the data transparency issue in AI training to incentivise human interactions with data with BNB Greenfield. Using the funds they won at the BNB Chain Hackathon, they are further refining their concept – making data tradable as a regular commodity or asset – to make data ownership meaningful, setting them up for success at their first round of fundraising.

Another winning project exemplifying the practical applications of blockchain technology is ZeroX, a Web3 Gaming platform with a core mission of onboarding users to Web3 through gaming. Offering SDK and API services for traditional game development, they are lowering the barriers for traditional game developers and gamers to enter Web3. They will allocate the funds they won at the Istanbul hackathon to accelerate their growth and incorporate BNB Greenfield into their product, putting them in a leading position for their first funding round and upcoming public product launch. 

Learn more about all of the winning projects, their experiences of BNB Chain Hackathon Istanbul and how it is accelerating their growth here.

Tomasz Wojewoda, Head of Business Development at BNB Chain, said: “The quality of the projects that emerged from the BNB Chain Istanbul Hackathon was truly remarkable. It has been great to see their Web3 spirit on full display and to see how they are leveraging opBNB and BNB Greenfield to accelerate their development. Myself and the BNB Chain team look forward to being by the developers’ sides and providing guidance as they continue to build towards realizing their vision.”

*Disclaimer: There is no guarantee that projects will be accepted to the MVB program.

BNB Chain Sees 1-year Transaction High; Demonstrates Network Reliability After BSC Surge

Published

on

DUBAI, UAE, November 22nd, 2023, Chainwire

  • November 19 saw BSC record more than 9.5M transactions in a single day
  • Earlier in the week, BSC demonstrated gas price stability during a similar surge

On November 19, 2023, BNB Chain, the community-driven blockchain ecosystem, saw its highest traffic rates since May of 2022 with transactions exceeding 9.5M for the day. More than 7M of the 9.5M daily transactions were attributed to inscription minting transactions on BNB Smart Chain (BSC).

The 1-year high comes amid a week of traffic surges on BSC. November 17 likewise saw a spike in traffic, with gas prices on BSC remaining consistent during the surge. On November 17, with TPS (transactions per second) reaching almost 250 at the peak, gas prices remained consistent at the $0.016 threshold.

While TPS rose to almost 250 on Nov. 17, gas prices on BSC remained steady at $0.016.

BSC’s very large block size is what allows it to handle spikes in traffic smoothly while maintaining a stable gas price. With TPS at around 200, the usage of the block is only at around 15-20%, meaning that the network still has plenty of space left to handle further traffic.

Mining Contracts From $10: How To Invest And Earn Passive Income With Mining

Published

on

By

m

As more players enter the cryptocurrency market, mining becomes more complex and requires more computing power. As a result, many people who previously used their own equipment for cryptocurrency mining now find it unsustainable: high electricity bills and wear and tear on the equipment. Therefore, cloud mining is becoming an increasingly attractive option.

In the partner material, we go into more detail about its features and how it will help increase passive income.

What is cloud mining

Cloud mining is a mechanism that uses leased cloud computing power to mine cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. Hardware setup and startup, no software installation required.

Cloud mining companies make mining even more affordable by allowing you to open an account and participate in cryptocurrency mining remotely at rock-bottom prices. Since mining takes place in the cloud, there are fewer issues with equipment maintenance or direct electricity costs.

How to start cloud mining

Here are the basic steps you need to take before getting started.

Step 1: Choose a Cloud Mining Provider

CGMD Miner is a popular and powerful cryptocurrency mining platform and an excellent resource for passive income. CGMD Miner is a free Bitcoin mining program that allows you to passively earn Bitcoins without any strings attached, regardless of technical knowledge or financial resources. Once $12 worth of Bitcoins are mined, they can be transferred to your account and traded. Any profits are yours and you can withdraw them to your personal wallet.

Platform advantages:

Get $10 immediately after registration;

High levels of profitability and daily payout;

No additional services or administrative fees required;

Other currencies can be generated;

The company’s Partner Program allows you to invite friends and earn up to $3,000 in referral bonuses;

McAfee security? Cloudflare® security protection;

24/7 technical support.

Step 2. Register an account

Go to the provider of your choice and sign up to create a new account.

CGMD Miner offers a simple registration process: all you need to do is enter your email address. After signing up, you can start mining Bitcoin immediately.

Step 3. Purchase a Mining Contract

Miner CGMD offers a variety of mining contract options: packages ranging from US$100 to US$5,000, each package has its own return on investment and a certain contract validity period. Right now:

The day after the contract is purchased, the revenue starts flowing in. When $100 is reached, the money can be withdrawn to a crypto wallet or continue to purchase other contracts.

Step 4: Earn passive income

Cloud mining is a great way to increase your passive income. Cryptocurrency capital can be grown via “autopilot” mode with minimal time outlay – less than any type of active trading. Passive income is the goal of every investor and trader, and with CGMD miners, achieving it is easier than ever.

CGMD Partner Program

Miner CGMD also offers an affiliate program, a platform that allows you to earn money by recommending the site to others. You can make money even without investing. A fixed one-time bonus of up to $3,000 will be charged for inviting positive referrals.
