A decentralized, uncensorable Twitter-clone built on Ethereum.

Check out the deployed Heroku-version of this app at tweether.io (the initial page load might be slow since it's hosted on a free tier)

Running locally

First, make sure that you have Node and Truffle installed on your computer.

Clone the repo, then run the following commands in the folder:

npm install

npm run dev

Usage

All the data is stored on the Ethereum blockchain, which means that signing up and posting tweets costs a small amount of ether. This is probably not something that people would be willing to pay for in the near future, but serves as a proof-of-concept.
