As the cryptocurrency space grows in popularity, one will find a number of projects that are aiming to push cryptocurrencies to the next level. I take great interest in following the developments of these projects, because like many others in the crypto-space, I want the space to succeed. With this in mind, I have come across a project that I believe perfectly captures the potential of cryptocurrencies. It is with great excitement that I introduce to you Matchpool, the first Ethereum based social network.
What Is Matchpool?
At its core, Matchpool is a decentralised matchmaking platform, built on the Ethereum blockchain, that helps participants match with each other. Individuals are matched based on common interest. So, if you are seeking a particular type of interaction or service, then Matchpool will connect you with others that can provide you with the interaction or service that you so desire. Being built on the Ethereum blockchain, the platform utilises smart contracts that handle matchmaking, participation, reward structure etc.
Use Cases:
Dating
Membership Clubs
Leisure / Lifestyle
Businesses
Recruitment
Education
Health
A Closer Look:
Matchpool enables its users to create a group, or ‘Matchmaking Pool’. The owner of these pools, also known as ‘Poolmakers’, have the opportunity to earn rewards for matching members within their pool. As well as creating a Matchmaking Pool, users can also be members of pools themselves. A user can get involved in any pool that they so desire, this allows them to find a person or service that they may require.
PoolMakers
As a Poolmaker, you have a lot of options regarding how you run your pool, you can:
• Set entrance rules
• Configure your revenue streams
• Configure settings for pool members
Matchpool also incorporates a reputation system into the platform. This enables a user to make an informed decision as to which pool to get involved with, based on the reputation of the Poolmaker. As a Poolmaker, as your reputation as a matchmaker increases, the temperature of your pool will also gradually rise. Thus, the higher your temperature, the more reputable you appear before your fellow users.
Tokens
Matchpool utilises the Guppy (GUP) token to facilitate the internal reward mechanism. Any user interested in creating their own pool must first place a GUP deposit, this will be returned upon the closing down of a pool. More importantly, Poolmakers can earn GUP by successfully matching pool members, or by having an entrance fee or subscription fee to their pool.
Matchpool Team
The Matchpool roster is made up of a wealth of talented individuals, of which the founders and co-founders are:
Rest Of The Team:
BRETT HARVEY, KATHERINE BAI, CLARA MERCER, LIOR ZYSMAN
Advisors:
DR GAVIN WOOD, JAKE BRUKHMAN, JOE SHAPIRA, NED SCOTT, HERMIONE WAY

Make sure to also check out the Matchpool white paper here, so that you can really understand what the project is about. You can also take a look at the project’s transparent roadmap here.
I am personally very excited with what this project has to offer. It’s strong model is supported by a group of talented indivduals. The cryptocurrency space is still very much in its nascent years, it is only with truly innovative projects that this space will be able to revolutionise the way we live in the outer world, and a part of me believes that Matchpool really is such a project.

Yes, Matchpool looks very interesting. I have some GUP.
The dating features will take matchpool alo g way, i once thought if there was a cryptocurrency supporting dating and found now. At this time when most industries even the banking industry in keying into the blockchain technology, dating should get on the blockchain bang wagon already. Thank you @adsactly for this awareness, let me check out matchpool.

i have been trying to log in with facebook for over 2 weeks - to no avail
any clues? eg can you login with facebook brett?
A very good post @adsactly
Wow. @adsactly this stuff is making waves
@adsactly
A new discovery, a group of people one idea. My question is, what advantages Matchpool, when compared to groups and communities available on facebook. I see, there is also on facebook, what you say about Matchpool function. Thank you very much.
Looks like a very interesting concept.. I will definitely be checking this out... great post.
From what I read in this post, I think Matchpool could be a great alternative to paid Facebook groups. Those groups tend to have focused members at first, but usually many members contributions fade over time. With what this platform offers, i think that you would have much more enriched engagement from members.
This is a genius idea...I am wowed!
Thnx fr sharing dis valuable stuff...dfntly resteem this post
I love this idea because it's a brilliant one and i will be glad to see more great projects such as this coming from the crypto and blockchain industry.
@adsactly thanks for letting me know about this early enough
😃😃😃😃
Next attack on a well known sector. It will work and the best you have transparency. Question: How to handle privacy concerns if required like dating?
Very interesting, Ill keep my eyes on this
Good post @adsactly , I see your post always improved, why with my post there is no support and no one likes. Could it help me for his support. thank you
Whaaaat? Soooo... your a pimp? You have pool (stable) of people (Ho's) and if anyone is interested in dating them they have to pay you? 😂 haha, this app makes pumpin easy!
Thanks @adsactly ! Very interesting!
I immediately think of those on LinkedIn that desperately need and want to understand blockchain purely based on the buzz around it.
I could see a great many of these professionals signing up to this to lay claim to early adoption.
Thanks for the heads up. tip! post
Interesting project. If I wanted to get acquainted with a cool guy, I would have used it.
Just yesterday I was talking about how there are too many dating apps. But tbh the way Matchpool handles poolmaking and internal rewards is interesting, I'll give it a try.
Invested in this some time ago and still waiting for the price to get back to where it was, community pretty let down by devs!
