MINDS: A Crypto Friendly Social Media Alternative.

in #news7 years ago (edited)

In a world where social media platform's are going out of there way to share your personal details with Watch Dogs as well as scrape your personal data for there own benefit, it's time that you learned about a platform known as Minds that provides an alternative to the way thing's are being done.

My favorite underrated fact about Minds, while platforms like Twitter and Facebook are going out of their way to make it difficult for people to discuss the subject of cryptocurrency, Minds is not only built on top of a crypto token, Minds is uncensored and encrypted allowing users to share posts and information on their profiles without having to worry about Watch Dogs tracking their user details.

Anyone looking to promote a cryptocurrency brand or talk about Ico's just like here on Steem have an honest and open platform for the topic which will not limit users from their ability to share a message with their audience unlike the algorithm on Facebook which limits users to around 7% viewing once a user reaches a threshold of a certain amount of contacts. Minds.com supports cryptocurrency and Bitcoin completely and there is never going to be a time when the words cryptocurrency ban are ever going to be used in the same sentence by the owners, for that reason alone Minds.com deserves a second of my time which is why I decided to open an account today after all these years of watching the platform grow.

If you have not heard about Minds.com it's time you were introduced to the next alternative decentralized and encrypted social media platform to hit the block that aims to replace Facebook.

With around a million registered users on the beta and 110000 monthly users or so, Minds.com is poised become the first encrypted social media platform set to rival some of the big companies on the block and shake up the way things are done in the realm of social media networking, offering an experience that is honest, private and a refreshing change from the norm.

Downloading the Minds.com app could not have been any easier and took me under 5 minutes to set up on my phone as well as register and start to use, from my perspective that's fantastic considering some of these apps make it very difficult to just start using them.

Unlike Facebook ,Twitter or Instagram as well as the other leading social platforms, Minds retained a strictly reverse-chronological timeline. Minds has also just recently upgraded the user experience to include tokenization, where users can earn tokens simply by spending time on the platform or when other users interact with a given post.

Minds does have encrypted messaging, although I have not yet had a chance to mess around with it and get to learn more about how it work's, I look forward to trying the messenger this week. Because, encrypted messenger's are one of my favorite thing's, in the order of favorite things ;p

As usual, a great article! Minds is a rising star with a noble cause You sure have a gift of finding the most amazing things out there @jazminmillion. Good luck Minds! You have our full support.

Thanks for the post.
Been hearing a lot about Minds recently.
Less and less interested in Facebook and Twitter daily. More and more interested in Steemit.

I will try this one out, I like the groups feature that is missing here on steemit. Visibility should be much better because of it.
Thanks for sharing! :)

Its good to learn about minds.com, thanks for the details for we new people around.

Stay tuned, lots of great information from @jazminmillion

I find it weird to think about an encrypted social media platform. What is the point of having it encrypted? Just so what you share is only know to the people you share it with? Maybe status updates have just always feel unnecessary to me. Really, the only thing i use anymore is reddit and instagram. I like the photos on instagram, and i like reddit for its small (sometimes) communities and community sourced news/information. Really, what i would love more is for a mass adoption of fully encrypted messaging system in the USA. That seems like it should be amuch higher priority than an encrypted social media.

Maybe thats just me. Youre post has definitely pushed me closer to opening an account. Thanks!

Minds does have encrypted messaging too ;D

I like the idea of high net-worth individuals having an option for an encrypted social media site's and the fact is for those who are just looking for the average user experience, an encrypted level of security is never a bad thing.

For the most part it is what we love so much about crypto and Peer to peer, so why not integrate those idea's with a social platform? Just kind of makes sense if you ask me, thank you for the comment. If you check it Mind's, let me know!

I couldn’t agree more.
