🤔 Can decentralized social networks save democracy? 🤯
Maybe Yocom-Piatt and the team at #Decred are right. One thing the digital world does very well is darken rather than brighten.
On #Web2 , and with the advancements of #IA , it may be impossible to know who you are talking to. You could be reading the thoughts and opinions of a bot, a Russian puppet account, or a real person.
In the world of cryptocurrencies, this can manifest as exaggerated support for a token or coin, creating a false impression of grassroots enthusiasm.
But in the world of politics, where the stakes are higher, Yocom-Piatt believes blockchain-based social media platforms can have a positive impact on elections themselves.
