Blurt is a social blockchain that lets users publish posts, comment, vote and take part in a community where account activity is recorded on-chain. Instead of being controlled by one closed platform, Blurt can be accessed through different frontends and tools.
The network uses the BLURT token and a permission system based on cryptographic keys. This means that account security is different from a traditional social website: users need to understand Master Password, posting key, active key and owner key.
Blurt can be used as a blog, a social network, a content discovery system and a Web3 publishing layer. Authors can publish long-form articles, share updates, comment on other users' content and vote for posts they find valuable.
For beginners, the most important first step is to learn how accounts and keys work. After that, it becomes much easier to choose a frontend, publish the first post and understand rewards, Blurt Power and wallet operations.
