Dwitter

DWITTER: Decentralized Twitter

Check out the deployed version of this app at https://dwtr.wajeshubham.in

Transactions on Ethereum are slow. Therefore, whenever you sign up or post/like dweets, it might take some time to complete the transaction. So please be patient.

Usage

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

Add ether to your wallet

You can add ether in your wallet fro free. To add ether to your wallet on the Ropsten network, you can use the following link:
