DeSo — Decentralized Social Media (English Version
In April, Elon Musk bought Twitter, my soul does not like that. We need “decentralization” not a sole owner.
“Decentralization” means that we have more power in the society meanwhile, everyone can support, not one person.
We’ll see what happens, maybe when the algorithms are open-source that make an improvement. Or Elon could make Twitter decentralised, hopefully.
The Kolo company thought, “What could we do?”
We did a research, and found a Decentralised Social Media App.
It’s called DeSo.
DeSo is a blockchain especially for social media content.
The idea is that the blockchain has social media content, and software developers could build apps for that content e.g. we have an app called Diamondapp.
Diamond looks very similar to Twitter, you or I could also build an app for DeSo content, that is possible, that is the power from Decentralised society and apps.
You can share a news, with picture or video too. Likes, reposts and comment are also there.
It’s just like Twitter.
Diamond also has the possibility for NFTs, a post is like a NFT that you can buy. We also have more features.
They have great documentation, and I think the vision is fantastic.
Here are a screen shot of the documentation:
Most importantly, the app is open source, I could see the code on Github, I could also build a node easily, with full permission to the data.

Blockchain Investigation
Kolo made a decision that we share our money, 65% in DeSo coin and 35% in Polygon MATIC.
The DeSo coin is only to support the DeSo company and test the Diamondapp.
The 35% is also to support Polygon, we believe that Polygon is underestimated. Now, we have cheaper gas fees for our transaction than Ethereum. And Kolo is very dependent on Polygon, our multisig safe is there. We want Polygon to survive. We also see that other people on Polygon has built many apps.
You can see our transaction on DeSo here
We have a couple questions for our reflect:
How can DAOs buy “off-chain assets”?
How can Kolo multisig have a bridges between two blockchains e.g. Polygon and DeSo?
What does “ownership” mean, especially with off-chain and on-chain assets for multisigs (Kolo)?
How can we say that a blockchain project will be success e.g. What metric shows us that DeSo will be success.
In Decentralised Social Media, should we have “decentralised ownership” or “decentralised data” or both ?
Thanks for your time
See you next time,
WAGMI 🙂
