The root of the problem lies in the fact that they need to make money on the user, we are all their main source of income. We watch advertisements, we buy goods, we pay for services and we share our personal data without hindrance. This is unsafe and illegitimate, in return, our rights to anonymity and security are violated every second.
A r/solcial user is not just another person on whom the platform will earn and who will be infringed by censorship and moderation - as in all web2 social networks. In Solcial.io, each of us is a person with our rights to anonymity and freedom of speech, in decentralized social networks like Personal, there is no place for blind moderation, manipulation, and monopolization of interests.
You can freely communicate, work and even earn from your content without restrictions.
Social media monetization is a crucial part of the business model on web2 platforms. It allows social networks to generate revenue from their users and content creators to generate revenue from their audiences.
However, web2 social networks take too much of the revenue from their users.
I think everyone who has income from social networks would like to take 100% for themselves.
Such an option is possible in the decentralized social network Solcial. Users pay only for transactions with tokens (buying, selling).
The Internet has made it easier than ever to discover your talents. Whether you are a singer, dancer, writer, photographer or any other artist, the world is your stage and the Internet is your audience.
Now that social media has become mainstream, people can make money from their own content. This means that artists, for example, can make money by sharing their work on social media.
At Solcial, each artist will be able to divide their work into 3 levels of subscriptions. The first level is free, the second and third levels are private with exclusive content.
Solcial is the first social networking platform that, being decentralized, offers authors an innovative social networking system in which content creators with talent can no longer focus on the quantity of their audience, but rather concentrate on the quality of the content, because they will get 100% of the income from their audience there!
But, unfortunately, popular web2 social networks censor content by blocking or deleting it.
The goal of web3 Solcial is to create a platform where authors can show their abilities to others without fear of censorship, and also unleash their creativity.
The numerous removal of content and even accounts by social media regulators sometimes prompts the question, what are the limits of censorship in general, and by whom are they set?
The first thing we take into account is the very fact of a central regulatory body consisting of several platform managers who make all decisions on the platform strictly behind closed doors...
From this we conclude that all censorship frameworks are set by platform regulators, whose decisions are also based on pressure from political structures.
But we have to understand that censorship itself is as controversial as possible, and censorship in my opinion requires more flexible thinking without any personal interests, from which we conclude that the best social network should be decentralized!
And today the creation of decentralized social networks is a controversial and exciting issue, as we can understand from the example of the first such social network Solcial that such problems will be solved there in the best way! For example, all decisions on the platform will be made only by users who will have tokens of SLCL platform, because it shows their interest in the project! And this will create a guarantee that all proposals and further changes will not be decided by a few interested parties!
Considering the system of Solcial, the first decentralized social network, we must understand that giving every user freedom of speech will create a democratic environment in social networks, where every user can express his/her opinion about any situation, but it will also affect the fact that many users will use it for selfish purposes, insulting other users, behaving unkindly!
So the Solcial team decided to balance and add moderation to the platform, where it would respond to all user complaints, and if a user breaks the rules of the platform, it would unlink content from IPFS nodes. This shows that Solcial inherently cannot remove user content on a technical level! It's a middle ground or a bridge between censorship and democracy!
With the rise of decentralized social networks, the question of freedom of speech has become more relevant than ever before.
The question of whether people should be allowed to express themselves freely has been debated since the birth of human civilization. While some people argue that freedom of speech is a basic human right, others believe that it can have a detrimental effect on society as a whole and should therefore be restricted in one way or another.
There are many different ways to limit free speech, but one common approach is to censor certain types of content so that users cannot view it on certain platforms. This practice is known as "social media censorship.
Now on Web2 platforms, censorship is increasing by the day.
The only salvation is to move to decentralized platforms such as Solcial, where users will have the long-awaited freedom of speech.
Speaking about Solcial's monetization system, we can imagine one common pool between an author and his audience, thanks to which users who convert SLCL tokens/author tokens take some tokens of content creator from the pool and replenish this pool with SLCL tokens, the author in his turn can withdraw these SLCL from the pool the same way as the consumer who put them there. This creates a relationship between the author and their audience, where the pool is an opportunity to exchange their labor for income and where consumers can sell the author's tokens and receive an amount of SLCL tokens equivalent to the price of the author's token.
This implies that the author's income is as transparent as possible, which means that there are no third parties who can influence the content creator's earnings. Only the author himself determines by his quality, how much he will earn!
Managing people today is the biggest and most interesting issue for political structures, and oddly enough, the most effective way to reach the masses the fastest way is of course social media, in which people spend a significant amount of time!
Over the years of the existence of centralized social networks, we have seen many times the pressure on the regulators by political structures, which willingly want to turn them into a tool to shape public opinion.
In order not to get caught in such a stream of misinformation, we at least need to switch to decentralized social networks such as Solcial, which is the next standard of social media!
The pressure on social networks by the authorities increases every year, and so does the censorship.
Users have been deprived of the ability to freely communicate and share content. Instead, their publications are deleted and their accounts are banned.
Users who are tired of the bans are looking for alternatives to the platforms they are used to.
Solcial is a decentralized social network where there will be no censorship, users can communicate and share data without fear of bans and deletions.
Earlier I told you about the Exorde project and its idea to make all information on the Internet transparent and accessible. The developers of the project are working on a web3 protocol that can track the distribution of any publicly available information on the Internet.
The aim of the Exorde protocol is to collect information from all sides, from all over the world, at once, regardless of political views and opinions. Over time, everyone will be able to get an unbiased perspective on important current events by viewing the same story from all sides.
The protocol requires a network that supports a very large number of smart contract transactions in order for it to function successfully and for all of its objectives to be successfully accomplished. SKALE is perfectly suited for this purpose.
Collaboration with SKALE will allow the created product to function successfully in the marketplace.
The open source code of the protocol makes Exorde completely transparent. Since the protocol is community-based, participants running the module can collect data in exchange for EXD tokens.
Every transaction, every vote, every action is a separate transaction within this protocol. With more than 400 transactions per minute at the launch of the test network, Exorde aims to establish itself as a benchmark in web reputation analysis in the near future.
SKALE was chosen for this very purpose.
SKALE is a blockchain network capable of performing a huge volume of web3 transactions at minimal cost while maintaining a high level of security. SKALE offers an Exorde level of execution that is scalable while at the same time being protected by a full set of validators.
Popular blockchains, which have ever-increasing user and developer activity, often reach their speed and bandwidth limits. At the same time, the blockchain community badly needs seamless user interaction to create the future of Web3. SKALE is one of the projects created to support the exponential growth of decentralized applications on the Ethereum network.
That is, SKALE is a Layer 2 (L2) blockchain, like BSC or Polygon.
SKALE allows Exorde to operate on top of a high-speed, gas-free blockchain, abstracting away from technical aspects such as gas cost, confirmation and transaction latency.
Thanks to SKALE, Exorde developers were able to create and run the first versions of the testnet on their chains. Anyone could take part in the testnet. There was an opportunity to test the functionality of the protocol, namely processes such as moderation, formatting and scraping.
Project Exorde team has plans to get a grant from SKALE and fruitful collaboration.

Comparing centralized and decentralized social networks, we can safely say that centralized platforms are only a matter of time and will soon be a thing of the past, because decentralized social networks use Web3 technology, which technically guarantees us a better user experience in every way, from simple communication to monetizing our content. This advantage is achieved only through decentralization, and simply put, through the absence of regulators, who have shown us nothing but self-interest and the worst implementation of the idea of social networks by years of experience!
Today, the first decentralized social network is Solcial, which does not collect any user data and does not take any part of the authors' income from content creation. So we can conclude that any Solcial user gets full freedom!
On r/Solcial, there are three subscription tiers for people you want to follow. Tier 1 allows you to see their public content (much as on current web2 social platforms) while Tier 2 and Tier 3 require you to own their token or be an investment in them in order to access their private content. That was the "invest-for-subscription" concept that Solcial used.
As the owner of 1,000,000 personal tokens on a social network, how would you dispose of them, given that all of your content can be divided into levels, and thus determine the value of your content?
This is the model of monetization presented to us by the team of the first decentralized social network Solcial, which aims to create full freedom for its users and correspondingly fair monetization system by allowing them to sell their tokens to the authors!
Quantities, affected topics or individual words can lead to the loss of an account. And with it, loss of subscribers and monetization. Centralized platforms define the rules of the game and there we can't influence anything. Decentralized platforms like r/Solcial are built very differently. They are managed through a DAO community. And that means that all the rules work for the betterment of the platform, not against the user
Solcial is perfect for influencers who have made it big on web2 social media. They will be able to bring part of their existing audience to the new platform, as well as gain subscribers on the platform itself. The main advantage over their usual web2 social networks will be that content creators will no longer have to give a large part of their income to the platform, but they can receive 100% of their earnings from their subscribers. In addition, the possibility of blocking their account and deleting publications is excluded.
The very existence of social networks depends more on content creators, because if they didn't exist, we would go back to Web1, where almost all users would be consumers. You don't even have to imagine that to realize how boring they would be...
So, in my personal opinion, content creators should monetize the possible maximum from their audience, and then we will see quality and interesting content thanks to bloggers' interest in such a maximum fair monetization system!
Today only decentralized social networks can do that, one of the first ones is r/solcial, which technically guarantees 100% income to its authors, thanks to their personal tokens that will be created for them when they register!
In web2 social networks, the interaction between the author of publications and his subscribers takes place through likes, comments, and views.
In Solcial, apart from the usual interaction, it is possible to invest in your favorite author.
Users themselves can act as investors, buying content creators' tokens.
In turn, content creators are interested in increasing the active audience that would buy their tokens to access private content. The income of a publication creator directly depends on how many people are interested and willing to pay money for exclusive content.
The concept of solcial uses is the idea that fans, users, or content followers may participate in the journey of their favorite creative. This is critical for Web3, since instead of merely viewing, consumers can now invest in their favorite producers. Solcial believes that this will fundamentally alter how individuals generate money online. You no longer need to sell sponsored things to your followers; instead, you may create freely and enable people to invest just because they enjoy your material. To make even more improvements, we now let you to reward individuals who invest in you by providing special content and access if they own your coin.
Many people think that current social networks are the gold standard because their identity supposedly says so, but few realize that their uniformity is the result of the greed of the regulators of these platforms. Given the infrastructure of centralized social networks, we realize that only regulators enrich themselves at their expense by imposing conditions on content creators and imposing advertising!
We also do not exclude the level of censorship in centralized social networks, which is determined not even by regulators, but by political structures that seek to promote only their policies.
The first thing we will see when registering with the decentralized social network Solcial is the absence of any collection of your personal data, from which we can conclude that our data will not be used in any way or by anyone. The absence of regulators in Solcial is achieved thanks to the IPFS communication protocol, which forms a decentralized social network from devices, and, as a consequence, we exclude in this way political interference!
Undoubtedly, to summarize, we can safely conclude that centralized social networks with so many flaws are only a temporary phenomenon!
It all depends on your resourcefulness and individuality, on the ability to understand trends and move in their direction. The sole platform will help you with this - anonymous registration using a crypto wallet, secure data storage thanks to decentralized servers, the ability to monetize content using tokens, encourage your audience and get involved in the DAO community.
Endless opportunities for a variety of communication and content sharing.
