Project Goal:

ChainConnect aims to revolutionize social media by leveraging blockchain technology to create a decentralized, user-centric platform. By integrating TRON blockchain’s features, ChainConnect provides a secure, transparent, and rewarding social experience. Users can engage in familiar social activities while benefiting from cryptocurrency rewards, decentralized content ownership, and innovative fundraising capabilities.

Project Information:

ChainConnect is a Web3 social media platform built on the TRON blockchain. It combines traditional social networking features with blockchain advantages, creating a unique ecosystem where user engagement directly translates to tangible rewards.

Project Value:

  1. Decentralized Social Interaction: Users maintain ownership of their data and content, reducing platform dependency.

  2. Token-Based Reward System: Encourages active participation and content creation through TRON-based token rewards.

  3. Blockchain-Verified Identity: Wallet addresses serve as unique identifiers, with optional Web2 details for familiarity.

  4. Innovative “Ignite” Feature: Allows users to make micro-donations to content creators, fostering a supportive community.

  5. NFT Integration: Users can mint their avatars as NFTs, adding a layer of digital ownership and uniqueness.

  6. Decentralized Fundraising: Posts can be used to create fundraising campaigns, leveraging blockchain for transparency.

  7. Enhanced Privacy And Blockchain Adoption: Blockchain technology ensures user data is not centrally stored or exploited and with the reward system using the chain connect platform token we can onboard users into the web3 space.

The future of ChainConnect:

ChainConnect plans to introduce advanced features such as decentralized content moderation, a marketplace for digital goods, and integration with other blockchain networks to enhance interoperability.

Welcome to Grand hackathon S7
Still trying to understand more about your project, is it all about social Fi where you engage and get rewarded?

Sure, we will provide that with time

ChainConnect is indeed more than just a simple “engage and get rewarded” social platform, although that is one of its key features. Here’s a concise breakdown of what ChainConnect aims to be:

  1. Decentralized Social Media: At its core, it’s a social media platform built on the TRON blockchain. This means users have more control over their data and content compared to traditional centralized platforms.
  2. Reward System: Yes, there is a token-based reward system that incentivizes engagement and content creation. Users can earn TRON-based tokens for their activities on the platform.
  3. Enhanced Features: ChainConnect goes beyond basic social interactions by incorporating:
  • NFT avatars: Users can mint their profile pictures as unique digital assets.
  • “Ignite” feature: A micro-donation system for supporting content creators.
  • Decentralized fundraising: Users can create blockchain-based fundraising campaigns through their posts.
  1. Privacy and Security: By leveraging blockchain technology, ChainConnect aims to provide better data privacy and security for its users.
  2. Web3 Onboarding: The platform serves as an entry point for users to engage with blockchain technology and cryptocurrency in a familiar social media context.
  3. Future Plans: There are plans to expand functionality with features like decentralized content moderation and a marketplace for digital goods.

Welcome to Hackathon Season 7, I clearly see the vision here is compelling and to create a decentralized, user-centric social media platform on the TRON blockchain.
And also, the use of TRON-based token rewards is a strong motivator for user engagement and content creation.
What steps will be taken to onboard non-crypto users who may be unfamiliar with blockchain technology?

Good, which means your platform token will be launched soon, so how will do supply looks like?

Welcome to the Hackathon of season 7, I read everything that you are writing, you are really having good ideas for the Tron Blockchain, but please tell me how are you going to manage your token supply very well so you can avoid inflation, thank you

One of the ways we intend to checkmate token inflation is to burn a certain percentage of the token a user earns

Token supply will be fair and inflation will be managed by burning a certain percentage of the platform token a user earns per interaction

The User experience and Interface will be similar to the traditional web2 social platform and we also intend on providing video guides and incentives for using chain-connect.

This is getting more interesting further, the decision to create a user experience and interface similar to traditional Web2 social platforms is a wise choice making it easier for non-crypto users to transition into Web3.
Will there be any support or helpdesk for users facing technical challenges during onboarding?

We will definitely have a help desk for users experiencing technical issues

Thank you very much for replying to me, I am seeing that you are wanting to burn your token to avoiding inflation, please tell me what is the percentage of your token that you are going to burn, thank you

Welcome to hackaTron S7. Reading your forum post, I understand that your project aims to decentralized social media and reward use for their engagement but it’s difficult to know how this engagement will work. So, I will like to know how you have planned to reward users who engage in your platform and what do these users have to do to earn this rewards?

A help desk for users experiencing technical issues is a great step toward ensuring a smooth user experience, will users be able to access support directly within the app, or will they be redirected to an external help desk platform?

We are looking at 10% of every users earning per interaction

With the limited time we have for this project, help desk will be outside of the app.
With time we will incoperate inapp help desk

After undergoing through your project goal and information I need clarity on how your project can handle data storage and content management on the platform, and also if there are plans for mobile and desktop App.

Currently we only support web app, mobile apps is enshrined in our future plan.
For the issue of data storage, we will be using ipfs to store video and image contents.
