Inspiration
I'm inspired from the data leaks happened in past few years. There should be some way to provide security so that the data control should be in hands of user.
What it does
DecX - Decentralized Twitter It is a decentralized twitter with Twitter UI. User loges in using metamask account. All the posts are stored in IPFS. All the images and videos are posted in OpenSea as NFT so that user can get revenue from NFT.
How we built it
I have used React for the frontend of the DecX. For storing the users details Socket.io is used. Smart contracts are written for posting the tweet. All the images are uploaded into IPFS using Pinata API
Challenges we ran into
I personally faced challenge while connecting the Web3 with smart contracts. I am learning Web3 now.
What we learned
I have learnt about Socket DB and Web3.
What's next for DecX - Decentralized Twitter
This is still in prototype stage. I want to fully develop and release a Dapp.
