The parent company of EOSIO, Block.one, published launch date for their new social network Voice. Beta version of Voice the firm plans to launch on February 14th, 2020. The publication also implies that over the past few months “tens of thousands” of users were signed up for the new social network. Let’s find out more about the EOS news today.
Voice has, in addition, published a new FAQ page that states the direction of the project. Expectedly, Voice following other blockchain-based social networks will implement a cryptocurrency reward system and will make an attempt to reinvent content models. Voice was originally unveiled in June of 2019, however, this is the first time that significant information is published by the project.
Voice will distribute crypto to its users regularly with the users that publish popular content will be rewarded with extra coins. This will provide an opportunity for Voce’s users to have their “voice” heard, crypto holders could bid on comment space, the comments of the ones that have the will to spend the biggest chunk of crypto will be shown first.
It is unknown if the monetary value will be a property of Voice tokens, or whether users will have the opportunity to exchange tokens on the open market for EOSIO. Whatsoever, Voice gives the suggestion that in future it will introduce further use:
“Voice Tokens are conceived as the gateway to all forms of promotion and advertising on the platform.”
Voice will not be an anonymous platform but a transparent one. It will ask users to identify themselves in order to publish content, thus eliminating fake accounts, catfishing, and bots.
“By allowing users to see who and how much is behind promoted content, it makes promotion more engaging and less manipulative,” Block.one states.
Voice will compete with few crypto reward systems. Steemit, created by EOS founder Dan Larimer, is a certain forerunner of Voice. Brave, Coil, and Minds all share certain similarities- the crypto reward system- with Voice. Libra is another platform that could be compared although it is not a reward token, it will be a part of the famous Facebook social network, the Empire of Mark Zuckerberg.
