However, it seems that at least one social media platform has publicly announced that it’s taking steps to make decentralized social media a reality in the near future. An engineer named “Rahul” recently posted the following tweet stating,
“I am joining Reddit’s crypto team. What is Reddit doing in crypto? 3 words – Dentralise [sic]. Social. Media.”
In a series of follow-up tweets Rahul stated Reddit will introduce crypto to its 500 million users, as individuals take control of social media, since individuals are the primary content creators and revenue generators for those platforms.
“Reddit has 500M monthly active users. When we all pull this off, we would onboard 500M web2 users into web3 and then there is no going back. Let me say that again – 500 million new crypto users. WAGMI [We are gonna make it],”
Raul tweeted.
“It is time to take back control. Make the internet truly open and break free. Give each of us ownership of what we are using.”
