Title: New social media service uCrypto.co - a Twitter for the Crypto Community
Post by: runpaint on September 06, 2015, 03:43:21 PM
http://uCrypto.co

I'm not affiliated with the guy running the site, but I just joined and we don't have many users yet since it just launched yesterday.

Anyway I'm pretty impressed, I've never been into Twitter and I don't much care for Facebook, but this one is specifically for the crypto community.  I like it, and it's already starting to be fun.  

After immediately being accused of trying to harvest our email addresses to sell Viagra, the owner explained that he decided to make uCrypto after Facebook banned him for 30 days because he posted a Bitcoin logo and it was flagged as terrorism.  He has a good point;  Facebook is too powerful, and it isn't that great IMO if you just want Crypto updates.  Besides, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is on the record as saying "They trust me with their information for some reason.  Dumb fucks."  source:  (https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Mark_Zuckerberg)

I just talked to a few thousand people, and they said they're waiting for you to join. 

We're not talking much about crypto yet;  we're still talking about how much we like the new site. 

But we're all crypto people, so it's a good place to go if you want to talk to crypto people.  That's why I signed up - when I post a crypto article or link on Facebook, nobody cares.  Facebook is full of people's grandmas playing Candy Crush, so they can stay there and do that while crypto people gather together at uCrypto.

That is just brand new site so don't know how it will work there, if admin of this site launch some kind of giveaway to join this site than it would be helpful to attract people to use this crytpo related social network.

Was signing up supposed to be a paid feature before this? Or are you talking about some other kind of free account?

Btw, I am hooked on the design. :D

I didn't really just talk to him, he was already giving away free accounts to everyone

So that's a pretty good giveaway
