GREAT POST. First came smart contracts. Then came blockchains that were built for speed to solve the scaling challenges. The next frontier will be a blockchain that can index and cost effectively store data. When that happens Decentralized Social can come to Web3. Read below
What if every 'like' or follow cost $1.00+?
That's the reality for Web3 on every general-purpose blockchain on the market today, including Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, and all others.
Smart contracts don't scale, and the numbers don't lie.

The blockchain will change the world and it can do it fairly. Worldcoin is one of the most ambitious efforts ever to do both simultaneously. @sama@alexblania
Introducing Worldcoin, a new cryptocurrency that will be distributed fairly to as many people as possible.
Details about how it works: https://t.co/DLcAmUA4u3
The math...>$800MM of DOTs to build the network = big news. While @Polkadot is one of the few that can do this at this scale, it is likely that massive deployment of treasury $s is going to accelerate and speed market adoption. @gavofyork
The @Polkadot treasury currently has 18,936,300 DOT (DOT, not USD - do the math) in it ready to spend on *your* ideas for building, improving, educating and indeed, anything else that the Polkadot governance believes valuable.
This is an example of why network effects of existing large companies will be crushed by the power of the blockchain, token economics and new ownership models, like for example, user-owned platforms. Thanks @gabelunao for a great thread. @adamjacksonsf@usebraintrust
Can we share your paycheck?
^ Sounds insane, right? But that's an agreement users take on when they work on Web2 networks. It's messed up from a personal financial standpoint, but it has other bad implications too.
Why fees matter, a 🧵:
Until today, there was only one way to run a social network: One company controlling everything. Now there's a new model: Thousands of independent devs building on the DeSo blockchain.
The Octane Fund dedicates $50M to devs building on DeSo. Apply today!
