Overview:
A new blockchain project, “Foresting”, is developing its platform to provide three main services. The three departments are: social media Foresting, Foresting Bank and Foresting Lab. Foresting is a social media platform which aims to distribute fair value to the platform owners. Foresting Bank will provide financial services to the platform users who will create content. It will act like a digital bank for the users. Foresting Lab will support and help the Foresting Network to grow. Foresting Network resembles the platform community and the content creators.
Difficulties Faced Today:
The social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, SnapChat, Twitter, and LinkedIn are centralized in nature. People share content, ideas, thoughts on these platforms without having the idea about the rewards behind this. The user data are taken from these platforms and sold to companies for advertisements and earning revenues. This leads to identity theft, privacy breaches, spam mails etc. Users’ privacy and security is lost today on social media platforms.
The content creators do not get their deserved share of profits from such platforms. The shareholders and the platform operators take up most of the profits generated thus leaving content creators in an unfair system.
Solution:
Foresting Network has come up with a solution to provide a better place for the content creators. The project is using blockchain technology to develop a rewarding social media platform. The Foresting Network ecosystem consist of three main components:
• Blockchain Based Rewarding Social Media Foresting:
It will give rewards to the content creators for creating contenting and sharing it on the platform. The content creators can submit content in any form like text, images, videos, audio, or live broadcasting. The social media Foresting will encourage content creators to create content faster than traditional platforms.
• Foresting Bank:
Foresting bank will provide financial services to the content creators. The contributions of the users on the platform will be assessed by the Foresting bank. The quality of their content and their contribution on the platform will decide their which financial services will be accessible to them.
• Foresting Lab:
Foresting Lab will develop an offline infrastructure to support the platform community and the content creators. The content creators can get a physical space with equipment needed such as cameras, microphones, lights, speakers, etc so that they can come up with better and quality content.
