In fact, the idea of a core internet protocol for identity, networking and messaging – much as HTTPS underlies the web – has been something of an elusive aspiration since the early days of social networking, when people began to see problems arise, says Braxton Woodham, the creator of DSNP. “We started last year and looked deeply at over 30 different projects and ultimately concluded Polkadot has characteristics that make it particularly adaptable for social networking,” Woodham said in an interview. “We’re working with the Polkadot team at Parity Technologies designing for scale, latency and low cost volatility for messaging, which is essential for social networks. You don’t see that with other chains.
“Project Liberty will likely launch as a standard parachain, at least initially,” said Peter Mauric, head of public affairs at Parity Technologies. “There’s an opportunity for something like this, a very good service for everyone in the Polkadot ecosystem and Web3 broadly, to be voted in by the community later as a common-good chain.”
