The social media landscape is currently controlled by a small number of large corporations that have an oligopolistic power to decide what people can and cannot say on social media. Moreover, social media giants monetize user data by selling it to advertisers in exchange for providing their “free” service, giving their users little to no control over their data.
As a result, a number of blockchain startups have been launched to decentralize social media and to return content and data ownership back to the user and away from large centralized organizations.
In this guide, we’ve gathered information about the top ten blockchain social media platforms for content creators in 2020.
