The recent announcement by decentralized social media platform Friend.tech to develop its own blockchain, Friendchain, has sparked curiosity and skepticism among users and crypto enthusiasts alike. With many questioning the need for a social-focused chain and expressing concerns about potential higher gas fees compared to the current Base network, the decision has left many wondering, “Why?”
In response to the announcement, crypto trader Dr. Jojipup raised the question of the value proposition of a social-focused chain, while others like ox0 and Pop Punk echoed similar sentiments.
