Subsocial- A Blockchain-Powered Social Platform
Subsocial is a blockchain-powered open platform that offers decentralized censorship-resistant social networks and marketplaces. You can think of it as a unified version of Facebook, Medium, Twitter, etc with the concept of decentralization, privacy, and monetary value. It will work as a Parachain in the Polkadot ecosystem and use the Substrate blockchain framework and IPFS technology for decentralized file storage. The project aims to resolve the existing issues with the centralized social platforms i.e censorship, selling of users’ private data, and the lack of monetization for content creators. The project code is open-source and highly customizable that will allow users to customize it as per their needs. Users can create space and defines rules for it. These rules will decide who will be able to write posts, delete, or edit them. They can also set whether they will be the sole owner of the space or any other users will share the space permission. Space owners can also issue tokens that will be used for voting, giving access to private content, or can be traded for other tokens of the Polkadot ecosystem. These spaces can even act like a DAO community, allowing the community members to change/upgrade the community rules and running its operation and governance. Subsocial Components The Subsocial interface comprises spaces, posts, comments, likes, and follows. These words sound familiar to you all as we have come across them while using any existing social media platform. You may think Spaces are similar to: · Publications on Medium · groups or pages on Facebook, · Accounts on Twitter and Instagram, · Channels on YouTube, · Servers on Discord And, Posts are similar to: · Posts on Facebook, · Articles on Medium, · Tweets on Twitter.

Below are the main utilities of the platform token: · Pay for transactions · Content Monetization
· Deploy smart contracts · Provide access to special contents (special spaces) · Deploy new tokens (Users who wish to purchase tokens of a particular space need to hold Subsocial main tokens) · Governance · Collators need to hold SUB tokens to run a network validator node of the Subsocial parachain How You Can Use And Earn SUB Token Users can sign in to the Subsocial dapp that is live on testnet by visiting this link.
