Maybe we will never be as big as Facebook,
but we don't want to be!
Imagine a social media platform that is run by the people, for the people.
Maybe we will never be as big as Facebook,
The world is ready for a new social media platform. Let’s create it together.
Running by community, for community
Picusly is the first decentralized, blockchain-integrated and community-driven social media network where users pay to use the infrastructure, without a middleman or centralized organization. All infrastructure provides by community members who are rewarded for running servers. We solve cost problem of decentralized applications with this model.
Learn MoreNo more data harvesting or selling your data to 3rd parties!
Unlike other free services,you charges what you use with PCST tokens so that there's no need for invasive ads or selling your data to third parties Facebook does.
Make money by supporting decentralized internet - be a server provider!
As a server owner, you can support decentralized projects and also earn PCST tokens when someone uses your server as exit node to the network.
Learn MoreUnique monetization model for node owners
To connect to a server, users pay the PCST token fee set by the person running the server and access the entire network by connecting to the server.
No middleman
Users pay the fee to use the server directly to the wallet determined by the server owner. The server checks the payments on the blockchain behalf of node owner and automatically accepts the users to network.
Democratic Pricing
Node owners set all prices. There is no upper or lower price limit, but the total amount of PCST tokens the node owner will receive from their users per month cannot exceed the number of PCST tokens they have staked. Pricing is calculated using the “price based on the staking” method.
Anonymity
No information is stored on servers. Servers are only in the transition role. A server must prove whether its digital signature is correct in order to connect to other servers and client-side. Servers using modified docker images are blocked from connecting to the network. Client-side software uses the Signal protocol to create a p2p secure connection. In this way, it becomes impossible for the nodes in between to monitor the data flow.

We are a small team of two and we work full time for this project. We will be happy to see more participants among us in the future.
