The decentralized social media app Damus has launched, making use of the Nostr protocol. The app features Bitcoin tipping and censorship resistance.
Damus, a decentralized social media platform that was partially funded by Jack Dorsey, has launched. The social media platform runs on the Nostr protocol and states that users fully control the network.
The project is yet another decentralized Twitter alternative to hit the market. Arguably the biggest name in this list of alternatives is Mastodon, which made headlines when its user base exploded following the Twitter satın alma.
Damus differs from Mastodon primarily because it does not ask users to submit information to register on the platform. Damus is entirely decentralized, and the Nostr protocol communicates messages through decentralized relays.
One of the most notable features of the platform is the fact it allows Bitcoin tipping. These tips are executed through Bitcoin’s Yıldırım ağı, a layer-2 solution that increases throughput.
