Corld looks like a combination of Facebook and Discord based on blockchain. But for me blockchain stimulates anonimous processes but the social media parts wants us to tell everything about ourselves. That seems contradictionairy. The benefits of crypto are a bit lost then, right?
Corld differs from established social networks by philosophy, user experience and value proposition. Unlike today’s conventional social networking hubs, Corld envisages a collaborative world. As social entrepreneurs and professionals, we know for a fact that a collaborative world is emerging-mainly empowered by Gen Z- to unleash its potential. The future of social networking is collaborative in two main aspects: creating and sharing. Corld users create collaboratively and share collaboratively.
Today’s social networking has five common problems and Corld offers five solutions. Corld identifies these problems as lack of freedom, privacy, collaboration, relevancy and audience understanding.
Established social networking is gradually lacking
freedom because users are encouraged to follow profiles rather than actual content. For instance, a user might be following another user for inspiring his or her interests and hobbies. Take motorcycling as an example. You might follow a user who is interested in motorcycling but since you are following a profile rather than the content, you have to consume other and irrelevant content besides motorcycling; the user’s cat, family or business life in this case. Corld is about freedom because it allows users to follow “Journeys” rather than the profiles. So with Corld, you will have full control on what to follow.
Established social networking lacks
privacy because most social networks are not allowing their users to have full control on what to share. And when they do, it’s abundantly complex. Corld is about privacy because it gives full control on with whom to share. You can configure a Journey based on your privacy preferences. You may create journeys that can be seen by your selected audience only; be it your colleagues, family, elementary school friends, etc.
Established social networking lacks
collaboration. There are so many things in life which are most enjoyed when collaboratively experienced. Name it fitness, shopping, working, anything you can imagine. You have fitness buddies in social life as well as shopping friends and working friends. It is really hard for you to create collaborative content with your friends in established social networks. Corld is about collaboration because it enables users and their collaborators to create content together in collaborative Journeys.
Established social networking lacks
relevancy. Inspiration is contagious and whenever we find an inspiring content or experience we would like to explore more. It is in our nature. Yet, it is extremely hard to do that in established networks. Because you cannot easily connect with people who share similar interests with you. Corld is about relevancy and it allows users to discover people with similar interests. Thanks to its modular infrastructure you can follow interesting people and journeys with multiple aspects. For example, you can meet with people who are both dog lovers and art enthusiasts.
Established social networking lacks
audience understanding. You may have thousands of followers in these social networks but what it really tells you? Corld is about understanding your audience. With Corld, you can acquire a complete breakdown of demographic and interest-based information about your followers.
Corld will build the future of social networking with
a unique sharing economy model based on tokenization as well. Unlike established social networks which are beneficial only for the few who use personal data of many as commodities, Corld will share its economic value with its users via Cedium, which is Corld’s medium of exchange and the sole accounting unit of Corld platform.
