First of all, you will soon be able to see who upvotes what, so users will have full transparency on the upvotes. More importantly though, there is significance to the "reputation" a user has when it comes to promoting content, so 1000 upvotes from "new" users has less weight than 100 users whom have earned reputation on the platform. Not to mention, in-order to sign up you have to verify your email/device, making it a bit of a hassle for intruders to abuse.

I do agree thought that this is an issue with many other platforms like reddit, which is why I am focussing deeply on the integrity and transparency of the platform!

The idea behind Cryptonomy is that the community as a whole can have their say on what they deem worthy or not. User's who constantly contribute quality content increase their reputation, which in change adds more significance to their votes. There isn't a perfect system yet, but I believe this is a much more effective way than anything else that is currently available, and I'm constantly working on making it better!

We are all here because we believe in the promise of decentralization, the freedom of information, and importance (or lack there of) of trust.

With all this potential, the crypto world is still full of noise, fraud, scams, manipulation - all extremely damaging its reputation and hurting progress along the way.

I've spent the last 11 months working on finding a solution, a way to help promote quality projects, while demoting and flagging those who are shams or guaranteed to under deliver.

That is why I created *Cryptonomy*, a community-based social network for crypto-enthusiasts. By using a combination of crowd-sourcing and reputation-based curation, I have engineered a platform that positions quality and authentic content at the center. Cryptonomy is a place to discover, deliberate and engage about various topics in the blockchain and crypto world, all in efforts of building a healthy ecosystem which can let true work thrive.

I've built a whole array of features, from portfolio tracking to direct messaging, community management to a robust feed with news, forum posts, reviews, etc.

My handle on there is @royth. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and feedback. Let's make crypto great again!

**Please leave your feedback - My goal is to build the best platform available for crypto-enthusiasts.**

Thanks for the post team! Cryptonomy is a killer product!

Hey everyone - I just shared my app on Reddit, would really appreciate your love and an upvote to help me spread the word. I’ve worked really hard on this.

Thank you so much!

Ha awesome - Thanks so much! Would you be able to link me to those groups so I can see and respond to any questions?

I don't think a product can ever really be "finished", but I'd say its in a good spot for the first version! I just added a new post about it too

No journey worth taking is easy.

6 months ago I decided to embark on a journey - one that I knew could be just as devastating as it could rewarding.

So here I am, 180 days, 2 native apps, and 100,000 lines of code later, glad to introduce to you, Cryptonomy.

Cryptonomy is a complete community-based ecosystem for crypto-enthusiasts that includes portfolio tracking, news aggregation, real-time forum (stack-overflow style), live chats, ICO listings, educational material, and more. Its a "one-stop-shop" where you can get all of the information that you need, at the tip of your fingers, delivered in a simplistic and convenient way.

Here's a little short nifty "preview video" of the app - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYdyEsT7CMg

My vision is to connect all of us that really believe in blockchain and in true freedom of information, as well as provide a platform that helps this technology flourish.

Please feel free to comments and feedback - I take everything into consideration in hopes of building the best product of it's kind!

Here are direct download links to the app:

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cryptonomy.piiymlabs.cryptonomy
iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cryptonomy/id1263028655?mt=8

P.S.
I also wrote a more lengthy post on steemit detailing my journey, if anyone is interested!

Thanks Malik! I'm about to release some really awesome additions this week (starting with iOS). I'll make sure to update the post once I do

I agree - there have been a lot of people who want to help out and collaborate. At the moment its still pretty much me building the whole platform and finding the right people to help is a lot of work which must be done carefully.

ahhh ok finally got you! do you have a link to the thread you mentioned?

Still don't think I understand what you are trying to say.. can you rephrase please

What do you mean?

Hey everyone! Happy to announce that after a few weeks with lots of coding, and a little less sleeping, I've managed to finish up the android version of Cryptonomy, which means we are now officially cross platform!

Does anyone know if a Initial Coin Offering (ICO) API exists anywhere? Did a bit of searching and couldn't find anything!

Thanks

Yep - I built it. Thanks! Would appreciate it if you can take a moment to rate it 5 stars and write a review, as well as help spread the word!

Absolutely! Sending you a private message so lets continue our conversation there

Thanks for the feedback! Android is in the works, but as I am currently working on it all myself (a few different people/organizations have approached me about investing/partnering, but for now still solo on it), it might take me a few weeks. Will update you once its live!

Thanks for the kind words!
