Note that I am not affiliated with this bounty in any way, and I don't know anything about the person offering it. I am just passing the information along.

As you're likely aware, Twitter's Jack Dorsey has launched an initiative to explore an open and decentralized standard for social media, where Twitter would just be a client. When he did, his team set up the bluesky account on Twitter as part of the effort.

Yesterday, that account retweeted an announcement of a $200 BTC bounty for an article that reviews decentralized social media platforms including "not just crypto efforts like Voice/Akasha, but allied tech like Mastodon, CRDT, Bittorrent, Git" - and of course, we here on Steem would add our own ecosystem to the list. If I had the time to write such a review, I'd also include diaspora.

So, if you have some time available between now and 11:59pm (PST) on December 30, and if you'd like a chance to compete for a $200 BTC bounty, here's an opportunity to showcase your writing along with the Steem blockchain. The following Tweets describe the request:

Too bad that Balaji S. Srinivasin doesn't seem to know about steem-bounty.com. ; -)

Anyway, if you'd like to submit an entry, here is the original tweet.
