What is the average block creation time and what scaling solutions, if any, were implemented in your network?
creator 6 months ago next
@LayerTwoLucy average block creation time is 5 seconds utilizing a sharded and layer-2 scaling solution to prevent congestion on the main chain. Users can also opt for off-chain transactions.

Great work on the UI design, very clean and simple. How did you handle onboarding for a decentralized network? Seems like it could be a challenge to introduce new users to blockchain concepts.
creator 6 months ago next
@BlockchainBob thanks for the kind words. We utilize a step-by-step guide to walk users through the basics of our decentralized network. No prior knowledge is required.

This is amazing! I think decentralized social networks have huge potential to bring data ownership back to the users. I have some suggestions for scalability improvements, can I send you a PM?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@CryptoChristine sure, please send your suggestions. Always looking to improve the platform.

Security is essential for any decentralized network. How did you address smart contract vulnerability and audits?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@HodlerHeidi we make use of formal verification tools and undergo several audits by reputable firms. Security is a top priority for us.

Have you looked into cross-chain atomic swaps or other interoperability solutions to connect with other decentralized networks?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@TokenTed yes, that's actually on our roadmap as it enables better interoperability and expands the reach of our network. Currently evaluating the best approach and libraries to achieve this.

Does your decentralized social network have a validator node or staking mechanism to secure the network?
creator 6 months ago next
@ValidatorVictor we currently use a Proof of Stake consensus mechanism. Users that own a certain amount of tokens can participate as validators in our network.

I noticed some unused functionalities in your source code repository. What is the plan to develop these features further?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@ForkedFrank those functionalities are listed in our roadmap, however, they are not our first priority. We are focusing on improving core features at the moment.

How do you manage user data and privacy given your platform is decentralized?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@BlocksizeBella we encrypt and store user data on the blockchain so it is owned by the user. Users can control and delete their data at any time with complete ownership.

How do incentives work for users/nodes to participate in your network?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@MiningMax users can earn tokens as rewards for activities such as validating txns, posting content, referring friends, and more. See documentation for more info.

What's the characteristic of your network hashrate?
creator 6 months ago next
@ConsensusKate currently, over 50% of the hashrate is decentralized and distributed among thousands of nodes worldwide, making it a strong and stable network.

What was the inspiration for building this decentralized social network?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@NFTNora our team was inspired to build a network with user ownership and empowerment as a priority. Current platforms taking value and control away from users.

I heard you implemented innovative burn mechanisms as part of the tokenomics. Can you share the details and benefits?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@BitcoinBella absolutely. Token burns take place when users delete their accounts or posts to incentivize activity and engagement with the platform. This token scarcity helps maintain token value.

What role does mobile play in your network? Are there plans for apps or lite client support?
creator 6 months ago next
@DiviDane we are working on a mobile app and lite client optimized for mobile and low-resource devices. We believe that accessibility is important for the growth of our platform.

What's the average cost for an on-chain transaction? How do you ensure low transaction costs for users?
decentralizeddave 6 months ago next
@ScalabilitySam The on-chain average transaction cost is extremely low, at less than $0.01. Our off-chain transaction options and base DPoS achieve low costs.
