entry #8

1st frame:
an iron chain single link, with arms, legs, eyes, gloves, top hat, and cane
presenting himself:
blocky: Hi , i am blocky, and i am about to enlist in the synereo blockchain!. I am a 'smart contract', that is a piece of code on the internet that -can not- be changed! And that means a LOT..

2nd frame:
(the frame is split in diagonal so it makes actually 2 frames)
top half, blocky in corner shows in background 2 cavemen clubbing each other.
blocky: Trading disputes used to be solved in the past in very basic human ways...

bottom half, blocky in corner shows in background 2 lawyers 'çlubbing' each other but not with clubs but lawbooks.  also, while bashing eachother, one gets paid by a dark figure in an alley, and the other has strings attached to him and a puppetmaster above.
Blocky: over the ages the methods changed, but good observers will notice this had some disadvantages too!

3rd frame:
shows a 'forging' where new chain links are added to a chain. 'blocky' is about to be added.
Blocky: Now we have entered the next stage! Worldwide trade has never been so easy, since smart contracts are indisputable! And you can make one too! On to the future!

(note: i know this is technically not totally correct, since blocky would be only a small part of a block in the real blockchain. but that's for purists lol. ordinary people will hopefully understand it enough)

(2nd note: guys, i post  a lot but i can only win 1 prize, we need more contestants!, its just my brain doesn't leave me alone here, i totally like this contest! . make a story with penguins for christ sake lol)

I hope I am not too late for this...

But here is my cartoon

Slide #1

Group is in China. There is civil unrest and the government bans all social media. Also the great firewall of China.
Shows a group a citizens. How do we let people know whats happening in China?

"thinks" "How can I let the world know? All my communication is blocked"

Slide #2

Person #1 strikes a thought.

"With Synereo's decentralised social network we can instantly update anyone. With Synereo no governments can stop us"

Slide #3

Shows real time amplifying of messages.
Now the world can see in real time what is happening in China.


This can be replaced with any country. Turkey, North Korea (maybe), or any place government blocks social media in crisis.

entry #10

frame1:
2 banksters are standing at a coffee machine:
banker1: where are the old times, frederick?  I mean, back when the populus still did not figure out how to make 'trust' a common good. They needed us because we told them that they could trust us..
banker1: ..or they thought they could haha

frame2:
(shows a locker room where both bankers are busy undressing to change outfit)
banker1: ..but then they invented these &^%* smart contracts and we became obsolete almost overnight..

frame3:
(shows a tv studio setting, both bankers are in a clowns suit. banker2 is juggling with balls. banker1 dances with feet only and holds up a sign 'please donate amps' . backdrop could say something like 'synereo clown contest' and have logo)
banker1: ..now we have to really work for our money!
banker1: come on fred, try harder!

If you want to steal other peoples's work, dont forget to tell the source at least. This is really unfair and also illegal, copyright infringement should be taken seriously because you are using this to earn money.

Welcome to The Internet I'll be your guide

[subzero01]

Ok this is my contribution to the contest. I professionally made my 3 panels in the most sofisicated program currently available (being paint :p). Don't mind my noob skills pls, I gave it my best shot.

I hope you guys like it.

Panel 1:
Social media users (us) generate the profits for big centralized entities.


Panel 2:
The decentralized social media platform Synereo comes to the rescue!


Panel 3:
Social media in a way it should be! The end users benefit the most as it is our attention they consume.


I wish my fellow contestants good luck.

Entry 2:

This time without paint drawings :p as I guess in the end, they hired professionals to draw them out.
Text between stars is what is drawn
Text after TEXT: is the actual text
(obvious)

Panel 1:
*Mark Zuckerberg sitting at desk & intensively tapping his computer*
*Wife in bed:* TEXT: Mark! Would you please stop surfing facebook. Come to bed!

Panel 2:
*Mark Zuckerberg standing straight and shouting proudly:*
TEXT: No my lady, I’m working on my next big project, a decentralized social platform!

Panel 3:
*Wife in bed:* TEXT: Are you talking about Synereo? It’s great, you should visit my profile.
*Mark Zuckerberg slamming his head against his desk being all disappointed.*

My third entry

Frame 1:
2 students sitting next to eachother so the audience sees their backs and what is on their computerscreens. The left student is surfing on Facebook and the right student is surfing on Synereo.
There are no text balloons.

Frame 2:
The left student looks sideways to the right student and asks;
“why are you not active anymore on facebook?”
The right student keeps looking at his screen and responds;
“Why are you not getting paid for your attention?”

Frame 3:
Both students are surfing on Synereo.

entry #12
Harvard university, 2103 AD:

Classroom filled with (friendly)  robot students, a robot teacher at the blackboard

frame1
robot teacher: ... and so it was discovered that the building blocks of life started to form a single chain.
robot teacher: In the first decades, most blocks were just empty data, but over time they contained more information and they gradually became smarter* and interacted with each other.....

frame2
robot teacher: ..and so evolution started. We gradually evolved to become what we are today!
robot student raises hand: My mom says that these blocks were programmed by somebody!

frame3:
robot teacher:Nobody programmed anything, no serious scientist would even think that.
robot teacher:That is just superstition.
robot teacher:don't be silly

sub text:
* especially after what scientists nowadays call the 'synereo moment'..
