Wait, is Hiveway just a Mastodon reskin? Because the homepage looks eerily similar

Also "There is no Federated Timeline"

So you're just forking something and removing its core strength just to slap a dumb blockchain on it.

ffs.

I don't know why I'm even surprised that this stuff takes off just because it has "blockchain" slapped on top of it. 🤦‍♂️

@Eramdam What does it means "Etherum Blockchain integration"? Does somebody know?

@Sylvhem a chain of blocks 🤷

@Sylvhem "electoral system, with technocratic values"
"#Hiveway will offer client targeting options and marketing tools to its users and to any party involved, in exchange for the WAY #token."
🤦
Oh, and they have an #ICO, ofc.

Something self-hostable where you still get ads.

@Sylvhem @Eramdam Mastodon as a Smart Contract ? Or maybe, toots stored in a blockchain (and therefore dispatched among clients?)

I wonder how they deal with block validation.

@lthms @Sylvhem Apparently they sell ICO tokens so I'd be willing to bet they're just setting up an elaborated scam because that what ICOs are for in 2018

@lthms I think they just store people's identity in the Etherum blockchain.
