I've created a Twitter clone on-chain to Ethereum's testnet
I've created a Twitter clone on-chain to Ethereum's testnet (ropsten). https://twitter-eth.vercel.app/ All tweets are automatically minted as NFTs. What I learned from building this is that it costs so much gas that it's useless. It costs $10 just to tweet, like, or RT. Deploying it costs over $100. Is this normal in Web 3.0?
- ssss11 5y agoWow nice little project. Try using polygon (layer2) or a cheaper blockchain like Solana or Fantom
- razokulover 5y agoI found that polygon is compatible with Ethereum's dapp. It seems to be easy to support. I'll give it a try.
- ssss11 5y agoYeah the fees should be way lower… let me know how it turns out for an app like this I’d be interested in knowing!
- dbavaria 5y agoI'm not super familiar with the concepts here, but can one NFT represent multiple tweets? I thought I read something about Coinbase introducing transaction bundling to reduce "network fees" on the blockchain. Could that be applied here, regular user tweets could be bundled into NFTs, while premium/verified users could pay to have each tweet minted as it's own NFT?
