What is MetaSo

What is MetaSo?

MetaSo is a decentralized social network node program built on Bitcoin. Developers can set up their own MetaSo node within 20 minutes, collectively forming a global, fully decentralized Web3 social platform network. This network is based on Bitcoin and supports all Bitcoin sidechains.

"Imagine an X (formerly Twitter) built on Bitcoin or a Facebook built on Bitcoin, where users can log in to both platforms with the same account, and their data is seamlessly interconnected. The data is stored on-chain, fully owned by the users, ensuring it is never lost or inaccessible."

MetaSo's Vision

MetaSo aims to provide the industry with a new Web3 paradigm and aspires to collaborate with like-minded developers to build and advance a truly decentralized Web3 network.

To achieve this, MetaSo prioritizes solving the following key challenges:

1. Self-Sovereign Identity

Thanks to the MetaID protocol, all MetaSo nodes inherently support decentralized identities. User information is not stored centrally but is truly owned and controlled by the users.

As a result, MetaID holders can access all nodes within the MetaSo network using just a private key or a mnemonic phrase. Developers and operators of MetaSo nodes can bypass the lengthy process of building and growing a user base, as they can attract a significant number of users from the very beginning.

2. Data Ownership

The MetaSo network adheres to the principle of on-chain data storage. Leveraging the MetaID protocol, all user data is stored on-chain. For users, this means they have complete control over their data. For MetaSo node developers and operators, this allows them to focus on enhancing platform functionality, saving time, and improving node operational efficiency.

3. Account Portability and Interoperability

With the MetaID protocol, MetaSo nodes inherently support account portability. Users can seamlessly migrate all their existing content to any node without the need to start over. Similarly, MetaSo node developers and operators benefit from a rich pool of user-generated content from the moment their application is launched.

Nodes within the MetaSo network achieve true interoperability, eliminating the problem of information silos.

4. Deep Customization

As an open-source middleware, MetaSo allows developers to perform extensive modifications. Developers are free to customize their MetaSo nodes according to their own vision, even integrating entirely new economic models. Any developer can freely design and tailor node functionalities and ecosystem dynamics.

Advantages of MetaSo

1. The First Fully Decentralized Social Solution Built on Blockchain

All node application data in MetaSo is stored on-chain. MetaSo nodes operate independently of any central authority, making it a truly decentralized social solution.

2. The First Decentralized Social Solution Spanning All UTXO Blockchains

MetaSo is compatible with all UTXO-based blockchains, enabling seamless communication between nodes. It has the capacity to support millions of users while benefiting from the advantages of various UTXO blockchains.

3. Fully Open-Source and Highly Customizable

MetaSo nodes are built on an open-source foundation, allowing developers to create MetaSo nodes with their own unique economic models.

4. Proven Maturity

MetaSo is built on the MetaID protocol, which has been refined and tested over three years. The protocol currently boasts over 150,000 users, demonstrating its reliability and scalability.
