Testing a proof-of-data transfer model for social media

Hi HN,

I’m building GFC Coin as an experiment in decentralized social infrastructure.

The core idea is a “proof-of-data transfer” model where content ownership and feed interactions are recorded on-chain rather than controlled by a central platform.

Current alpha includes:

A social feed layer

Wallet-linked identity

Early mechanics for tracking data ownership

This is still early and very much experimental.

I’m especially interested in feedback on:

Scalability tradeoffs for on-chain feeds

Whether social interactions should ever live fully on-chain

Better models for creator ownership without breaking UX

Would appreciate technical critique. Contact me on the website for access to the alpha! Thanks!
