Decentralized Social DESO: Lanzamiento de la aplicación Focus

Happy 4th! 💥

We're excited to announce that the first phase of DeSo's migration to Revolution PoS was successful! 💙

Revolution PoS brings staking (20% APY) to DeSo, including:

✅ Content, Identity, Social Graphs, Finance and Assets fully on-chain & decentralized on a single Layer-1, with streamlined onboarding.

✅ Support for fully on-chain Twitter-scale consumer apps at 500 posts per second, and thousands of DeFi transactions per second.

✅ <1/10,00th of a cent per post compared to ~$1 on Solana and $100+ on Ethereum.

✅ 1 second confirmation times.

✅ Data synced over a thousand permissionless validators with HyperSync, and secured via on-chain E2E-Encryption where needed.

✅ Burn-Maximizing Fee (BMF) model built to minimize congestion, and increase value for coin-holders.

✅ State-of-the art Fast-HotStuff consensus, the first of it's kind in production.

✅ Permissionlessly run validators with no staking minimums, no slashing risks, with commodity hardware (when using min. requirements).

Revolution expands the benefits of blockchains like Bitcoin from simple "storage-light" apps like DeFi — to "storage-heavy" apps that require heavy content needs like consumer social, marketplaces, and much more.

Revolution PoS finally gets us to the endgame, as we expand the market for crypto apps from simple use-cases to novel SocialFi experiences.

Put simply, DeSo will be the first blockchain ecosystem filled with apps that you can actually use everyday, open to anyone in the world with an Internet connection.

And our upcoming flagship app, Focus, will be the first fully crypto-native consumer app on Revolution PoS to make this a reality.

Stay tuned for the final phase of Revolution PoS on July 9th and the launch of Focus on July 30th! 🚀
