DeSoc's $10 million presale isn't just another tech headline. It's a sign of something bigger: the people are taking back the internet. We’ve had enough of being the product and not the partner. We’re insisting on having a seat at the table, and DeSoc’s success is a big, resounding YES!

I'm not saying BlockDAG is inherently bad, its struggles highlight a crucial lesson: tech without trust is just tech. And the mood right now is for people to bet their trust – and their dollars – where their values are.

Is it marketing over substance?

We know, trust us, we’ve all been bitten by hype in the past. BlockDAG’s unlimited presale and unexplained launch dates are leaving people concerned. A Trustpilot score of 2.8/5, with close to half the reviews 1-star? That's not a good look. It kind of feels like they’re focused more on the pre-release marketing blitz than actually releasing a great product.

Think about it. It’s the equivalent of that expensive restaurant with wonderful Instagramable pictures, but the food is just bad and the service even worse. You're left feeling cheated. BlockDAG risks becoming that restaurant.

DeSoc, by contrast, appears to understand that. They’re not just in the business of building a platform—they’re in the business of building community. Involving the community Their 45% token allocation to the presale says loudly, “We want you all to have a part in this!” And unlike a sales brochure, it’s an invitation. Miguel's people-centered approach is resonating.

Simultaneous Syndication: A Game Changer?

The genius of DeSoc, though, is in its foolishness. It’s not trying to persuade you to give up your current social media experience. It's offering a way to enhance it. One-click simultaneous content syndication across platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok. That's genius. Say goodbye to compromising on Web3 principles and your existing community.

This solves a real problem. How many times have you heard someone say, "I'd love to get into crypto, but it seems so complicated"? DeSoc lowers the barrier to entry. It’s instead like providing a bridge, rather than a cliff.

User revenue isn’t even the half of it. Content rewards, tipping systems, exclusive content access, ad partnerships – these aren’t just platforms’ features, they’re creators’ incentives. They build an ecosystem that works for all, rather than just private interests of the platform owners. It puts the power back where it belongs: in the hands of the creators. This is no before-they-happen-islamic-treat promise, but it’s a very real mechanism by which users can be compensated for their data production. It’s an incredibly smart model to connect with your customers on.

Challenging Centralized Social Media

We’ve come to a place where we’re even starting to ask whether social media itself is a good idea. Are these platforms actually doing our work for us, or are we doing their work for them? The emergence of decentralized alternatives such as DeSoc is a direct reaction to this discomfort.

  • Centralized Platforms: Control your data, monetize your content without sharing profits, and dictate what you see.
  • Decentralized Platforms (Like DeSoc): Empower users to own their data, earn revenue from their content, and participate in governance.

DeSoc’s $SOCS token isn’t simply a currency – it’s the key that can unlock an entirely different social media paradigm. It’s a vote for a future where people have more control over their own data and content. It’s an opportunity to escape the algorithms and other forms of censorship found on centralized platforms.

This isn’t only a conversation about technology. This is a conversation about freedom. It’s about taking back our digital selves and creating a more just online universe.

Now, some people are going to say: "It's just a presale. It doesn't guarantee success." And they're right. It is indicative of an important change in investor sentiment. Most of all, it demonstrates that the community is rewarding projects that deliver with respect to utility first, transparent tokenomics and a laser-focus on a real community.

DeSoc isn't just building a better social media platform. It's building a better future. And that's something worth investing in. The market is moving in the direction of transparency and proven innovation. DeSoc is proof of that.
