SMOKE.NETWORK - The Worlds First Blockchain Cannabis Social Network

Smoke.Network is a pioneering social media application for the cannabis community designed to reward users for their participation on a blockchainbased social network. The rewards are self-funding and the blockchain and all data is decentralized and owned by its users. It features an incentivized, distributed open source blockchain inspired by Dan Larimer’s ideas on an Autonomous Mutual Aid Society [BYTEMASTER 2015] and is powered by a Delegated Proof of Stake consensus protocol. Rewards are issued to users who make a meaningful contribution to the community through posting original content and through curating and upvoting high-quality content. Unlike other popular social networks, Smoke.Network is not controlled by a central authority. There is no single person that can modify the rules or governance of the application, or censor any users from accessing the application. The network is instead owned by all users and token holders in a distributed manner. This creates an incentive for all users to help grow the network together and rewards the users that provide the most value for their contributions. The first DApp built on the Smoke Network blockchain is Smoke.io, the Smoke.Network Minimal Viable Product (MVP). It was built to showcase basic features of the network and allows users to post images and articles, share stories, as well us up-vote, follow and curate content created by others on an immutable uncensorable blockchain and gain rewards for their efforts. The ability to review strains and local dispensaries will be rolled out at a later date, along with a grow journal and grow tracking application.

SMOKE.NETWORK - Problems with social media and cannabis

Problems with social media and cannabis.  Traditional social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter have a number of problems that plague cannabis related content. These include but are not limited to the following: Censorship Cannabis-related content is often censored and/or removed without warning on popular social media platforms. Many users have reported having Facebook pages with tens of thousand followers being shut down without warning [VICE 2017] simply for posting Cannabis related content. Even legal cannabis businesses are often targeted [CNBC 2017] with some even having their pages shut down multiple times in the same year [CNET 2018]. This creates an environment where cannabis users and businesses are constantly at risk of losing their social influence [ADWEEK 2018] due to interference from anticannabis advocates. Cannabis content can often be flagged and users can lose their groups consisting of thousands of passionate followers. The ‘Walled Garden’

Technology of Smoke.network (part 1)

Delegated Proof of Stake Consensus Model  Smoke.Network operates on a standalone Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) blockchain based on a fork of the latest version of the open source Steem software. Invented by Dan Larimer, the hugely successful founder of both Bitshares and the upcoming EOS platform, DPoS has a number of distinct advantages over competing consensus models such as Proof of Work (PoW) employed by market leaders such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin miners running its PoW algorithm use massive amounts of electricity [NYTIMES 2018] and build large infrastructure to supply the proof of work needed to claim new Bitcoins. This work is largely going to waste. DPoS provides a combination of speed and scalability that current PoW chains such as Ethereum lack without the large environmental impact and high computing costs. We believe this technology, already implemented successfully on Bitshares and Steem, and in the upcoming launch of the new EOS platform, will provide our
