> XEC believes we can have better money. I believe we can have better social networks. The two problems look similar but the trust being removed is different. Money needs agreement on one ledger; a network needs agreement on whose posts get seen. Miners are paid to extend the chain honestly. Who is paid to rank content honestly? If the answer is advertisers or the platform itself, the trusted third party never left, it just changed jobs.
Realizing the problem I’m trying to solve is similar to the problem eCash is trying to solve. XEC believes we can have better money. I believe we can have better social networks.

We want our money to be trustless, but that doesn't mean social networks have to be trustless.
