Are you sure about the news, if Twitter will launch a decentralized platform? I think, that idea will not be realized. because there are no signs yet that Twitter will lead to the launch of a decentralized platform. but we'll wait for what the future looks like.

Maybe yes maybe no, by the way it just a plan. Facebook has Libra and maybe Twitter also see new opportunity in crypto, that's good. I see so many company release their own coin but never survive, they look like scammer with brilliant idea collect money and gone. If twitter want to launch a decentralized platform they need learn from facebook experience, as starter use big name they still fail.

It's looks like twitter will not create their own cryptocurrency, Jack is prefer to Bitcoin.
He's product Square Crypto is focused on Bitcoin, not the publicly traded company’s specific products.

It is not that easy to have a "decentralized" platform, it is not easy to actually do anything decentralized. People see blockchain and bitcoin and think anything could be decentralized but what they are wrong is that blockchain is perfect for a currency, it was made for a currency, how the hell would a twitter type of social media platform can become decentralized with absolutely no administration or rules?

People would literally write "I would like to hire someone to kill a person" or something illegal and if it is truly decentralized and not have an owner that person won't have any troubles until figured out who they are. That is not something that easy to manage and I feel it would be quite difficult to build it on technology sense but also impossible for the legal sense.

To attract crypto community they used Decentralized label, especially Jack is the fan of Bitcoin and see he's platform is full of crypto community that will be good market for he's project.
He's journey possibly start from Africa

Decentralized they say? I always have second thoughts on this one specially we do talk about big platforms on here.
Facebook trying to do such thing and other messaging app but what we can still on abiding with their own terms.So where's the decentralization on here?
They might able to integrate blockchain tech but i dont 100% believe on going to the road of fully decentralized.

Applying decentralization is somehow impossible especially known social media accounts like facebook and tweeter. Base on my own perception, they just want to caught the attention of many here in crypto currency community and to gain more investors as well as those users to support their own platforms.

not fully decentralized like that, Twitter will still use their TOS. I also wonder what else Twitter can do while there is already an example from Mastodon's ActivityPub. Decentralization will also confuse Twitter where they are known to be very strict in prohibiting something that is different from their provisions, so what exactly can they provide?

Twitter is subsidizing a little research group to manufacture an “open and decentralized social media standard” to make Twitter a customer of this standard. CEO Jack Dorsey uncovered before yesterday and laid out his case in a tweet, despite the fact that he recognized that the procedure could take years.

The undertaking is called Bluesky, and nobody is working on it yet. The Twitter CTO Parag Agrawal is entrusted with finding the lead for the endeavor, which will develop a group of five men. The Bluesky record’s just tweet refers to Dorsey with “lo “— a gesture to the main email ever to be sent on the Internet.

It seems like a lot of people have lost their Twitter accounts because they are promoting bounties or airdrops. My account is also banned permanently with 15k followers. Even though I don't promote too many airdrops or bounties in one day, only 1-2 RTs. If Twitter really wants to update to decentralization, I hope it can support the bounty hunters and airdroppers activities. Because if we get banned again, our livelihoods will disappear.

Despite all the controversy at least they are trying to put a little effort and a little budget aswell into developing a decentralized platform which is a good thing. After the booming of open-source now the entire world turns their attention into decentralization. Honestly, I like how this is going.

A decentralized platform so the users can now post anything they want? Well, let’s see how the new platform will work and let’s see if they can survive in this competition knowing that twitter is not that good because of limited platform. Many social sites now showing some sign of adoption, its food for us.

That's also my concern regarding this matter. Learning from torrent which is decentralized. Censorship is not quite possible unless there's an effort from the authority but we'll see.

This simply tells us how the future will look like, i mean each and every company starting from online businesses and services and then to traditional corporations everywhere we will see the implementation of blockchain technology and all this will lead us to mass adoption of blockchain and also crypto.

But, does it need to make a coin?
You want to implement the blockchain on your own company and yet you also want a coin that would get a value too.
Is that the future?
Then everything will just be about the money and not the future anymore. This are just the works of greedy people who want more from those weak and poor.
Nothing has really changed.
Facebook Libra and now Twitter. Hello, Instagram, what are you waiting for?

I think Twitter needs to work hard enough and prove that it's not just nonsense, my friend lost 2 accounts when following the signature campaign, and airdrops on Twitter, but the results of no account were lost. Maybe for now I can just monitor the development of the issue. If it's profit, then I join the existing project.

I don't think that's surprising for now. All social media platforms will compete to create such technology, whether it's digital currency, counter-blockchain or technology that is currently hype.
Because basically they want to make their company bigger and get even more capital gain, that's not a public secret. In addition, in the future there will be more cashless societies that will cause all modern platforms to follow the trend.

Banning accounts on twitter makes sense, many spammers are on twitter and including scammers as well, they are like sharks waiting for their preys, crypto scam on Twitter is so alarming so I am with Twitter for blocking accounts, this doesn't make them a bad social platform

After the telegram, facebook and now it's Twitter's turn to plan to launch a new project. I think Google will soon make the same plan and this is very interesting, where technology giants will compete to become winners (among them) Grin

I hope their new project or product can be launched soon and I am very excited to see the competition between them, but I personally do not expect to have what they will create later, except they give airdrop Tongue

It is not yet "soon." For now, Twitter is still creating a team. This will take a long time. The first year or two being intended for study and planning. Although this could be expedited in a way because the people who are very knowledgeable about the creation of decentralized platforms are rising due the popularity of this new approach. And considering also that Twitter is a rich company. It has the capacity to hire the best people in their team.

Blockchain is now the trend and it will continue to be the trend onwards, and Twitter just want to take this opportunity to join the bandwagon, I'd like to see how they are going to create the features, I don't like Twitter, that is why I never join any campaign on Twitter, it's the easiest way to lose your account.

This is probably the first step ever done by a social media giant into decentralization. This is a fantastic undertaking on the part of twitter. Jack Dorsey is really a supporter of decentralization. Facebook had its own plan to enter into it but it was not really decentralizing its own social media platform. It was more of a venture into cryptocurrency to create more money rather than to contribute to the rising adoption of blockchain and cryptocurrency. It was more of a business interest rather than to disrupt the system.

They do ban too many accounts because of breaking the TOS they make using Twitter is unpleasant because it struggled to build her and arrived hit by suspending or banning. And now they want to make decentralization on their company yes such nonsense.

This is crap idea. Twitter is just the same with Facebook. Now they are trying to plan a crypto project? Come on, before you warn twitter users if they have affiliation on crypto you will suspend their account now this? Im not sure what you after but some people will probably not support this or yet buy those coin if ever you launch one.

This will become a good use case for blockchain technology if it's successful in development and its very forward thinking and might go some way toward increasing twitters popularity and user base which has been lagging behind other social media platforms in recent times

This is still a discourse. in my opinion the discourse is difficult to realize. because if Twitter will launch a Decentralized platform, they will have to study and explore in detail. and I see no signs that Twitter will launch a decentralized platform.

EVERYONE seems to be on this trend as of lately, to make everything decentralized. Pretty fascinating.

When you consider that Blocknet is the ONLY true DEX on the market, with a marketcap below $5 mio. it makes it a NO BRAINER basically.
You can read more about it here: https://blockdx.com/

Bisq, Waves, IDEX, Binance is not truly decentralized, if you look at how they actually function, some of them are close, but not really there just yet.

Great to see Twitter moving this way, let's see if they actually do something in regards to this, or if it's just a publicity stunt, haha!

Twitter is need a failed social platform and I don’t even understand its usage nowadays, really crap site to socialized better to use instagram and facebook. Anyway, if they adopt a decentralized platform then for sure they are preparing for something big, something that we really have to look for. Let’s give them a chance to clean their site and to give a better service again.

I have experienced that several times where my account was banned for no reason at all, I am using my account as normally as possible and posting according to their TOS but they still ban my account, I don't know how they are going to do it, they will face criticism just like what Facebook has experienced with their Libta coin.

It's still too early to start making conclusions. It's wrongly to blindly judge stuff without reviewing it. For now, your post is just hearsay.

I knew that the Twitter team was up to something. Less than a month ago, Twitter CEO and other top team members visited African and held a Bitcoin Meetup in Nigeria. and the announcement is live. I knew that since the inception of Libra started, other social media giants would want to follow suit. Crypto and Blockchain is the trend at the moment.

Even if that was already centralized, fully managed by them and alive right now. The problem is twitter can't even handle the centralized system and I doubt it they can do that when it comes to the decentralized system when anything will not be centralized. TOS has made by twitter is really sensitive case that twitter can ban account anytime.
a few years I never active use my twitter again and last month I have tried open it and it's got banned by twitter.

for social media and the decentralization means nothing when it comes to create a connection in the communities.

Let's see how this would turn out, judging by how much twitter is enjoying banning accounts for the slightest of offences, j was beginning to think that they might enjoy centralisation too much but evidently, we can still be surprised, I hope it works out great, it would be a huge win for Blockchain technology.

The mass banning that they did depends to the rule that you violated. IIRC, most of the banned accounts were used for twitter bounties.

There is a tendency that they have been ban because of that and twitter can't retrieve those accounts afaik.

Pretty sure Jack Dorsey could produce something pretty special if he really wanted to devote the energy to it. However, he's the CEO of a gigantic corporation, he likely doesn't have the bandwidth to spare working on another moonshot.

They take a look of time and mental energy, something he probably has very little to spare right now, while outsourcing these could be more expensive than a moonshot warrants.

I think he's happy to stay as a bystander, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him in some sort of advisory role at some point.
