Because of the popularity of social media platforms they are highly attractive to advertisers. This is due to the enormous amount of available user data that enables their advertising targeting to be so effective.
One reason user data is so readily available is because developers have given too much leeway in integrating social platforms their apps in the past. This allowed them almost carte-blanche access not only to user information, but also to the data of user’s contacts, with far-reaching implications.
This means that some other model of monetization besides advertising is necessary. While a subscription model is one apparent way to monetize a social platform without advertising (Medium.com is an example), this model denies access to those without financial means.
Toqqn is a small step towards a big mission to give users a privacy focused and ad-free social experience. As well, users are rewarded with crypto every day, through a new activity-based ecosystem.What’s unique about Toqqn is that doesn’t store any user data, it doesn’t track you, nor does it follow you everywhere with ads.
Toqqn Platform Development
Toqqn is in development using the best of both conventional and web 3.0 technologies. Conventional systems are used to make Toqqn a user friendly platform. At the same time blockchain technology will be adopted to decentralize user data. We want to build a social media where no user data will be stored on our platform or servers. This is to prevent any kind of misuse or exploitation of people’s private data.
Toqqn, a 100% ad-free social platform, powered by blockchain
The Toqqn social platform gives users the free social community they want without giving up their security and privacy. Blockchain integration means that no user information will be stored on our or any servers.Users are rewarded with crypto, through a new activity-based ecosystem 50% of the total supply of TQN (toqqn’s native crypto currency) is reserved to reward users for their daily activities. Making one’s social activities the new crypto mining. As part of Toqqn’s mandate to bring crypto to the masses, interactions on the platform (such as posting, content shares and other activities like commenting, moderating), is rewarded with our crypto, which is also named toqqn. The overarching goal of our reward program is to help bring crypto to people who could not otherwise access it. According to their activities, toqqn will be deposited to all user accounts every day.Users can track their earnings via their personal dashboard, which can be withdrawn to their wallets once in a week. Plans are also in place to create a services marketplace where users can provide digital services to earn additional toqqn and spend what they’ve acquired already for good. This provides true utility to our crypto token. Rewarding our users with crypto aids the adoption of cryptocurrency as a cross-border payment method that eliminates unnecessary third parties.
At the same time, we want to reach the masses with crypto, because we feel it is the payment system of the future. So instead of exploiting users who contribute to our social platform, we reward them with crypto.
- Technology - Built using the best of both conventional and web 3.0 technologies, Toqqn will be highly user friendly; at the same time blockchain technology is adopted to decentralize user data. That way no user data will be stored on our platform or servers to prevent any kind of misuse or exploitation of people’s private data.
- Timeframe - Fundraising for the project’s development starts with a pre-sale on the first week of September 2018. Platform development is already in full-swing. We aim to launch the first version of the platform by Q1 next year and a have fully functional beta by Q2 of 2019
Our Vision:
The expense of operating a social network is not insignificant; therefore, monetizing the social platform is necessary. While a subscription model is one way to monetize a social platform without advertising, it denies access to those without financial means. So we have come up the means to provide users with access to a free platform where security and privacy are of the utmost concern, yet makes the platform attractive for investors.
As part of our goal to bring crypto to the masses, interactions on the Toqqn platform will be rewarded with points which can be exchanged for our crypto token (toqqn.) This will ultimately increase the value of the token, as demand rises which will bring new investors.
Our Mision :
Our mission is to create a private and secure experience for social media users - decentralizing user data. Because of current limitations in technology, Toqqn will be built with the best of conventional and blockchain technology. This ensures user’s privacy is respected, while helping to bring the adoption of crypto to the masses.
Running the platform entirely on the blockchain at this time isn’t feasible. In the near future, we will be doing our best to transform the platform entirely to a DAPP or decentralize maximum critical data, after a stable build is achieved.
A machine learning algorithm will work on users’ crypto rewarding system (an activity-based ecosystem).
In addition, plans are in place to create a services marketplace where our users can provide digital services to earn additional toqqns. This will provide true utility to our crypto token, as well as help with the general adoption of cryptocurrency as a cross-border payment method that eliminates unnecessary third parties. Fees from this marketplace will also fund the platform.
Token Detail
Our crypto token (toqqn) will be an ERC20 compliant token (a subset of Ethereum.)
ERC20 allows for seamless integration with other decentralized application on the Ethereum blockchain, as well as Smart Contract integration. A strict limit of 1 billion TQN will be created and this is never to be increased. The listing and exchange submission process will be started as soon as the fundraising is finished.
Total supply: 1 billion toqqns (never to be increased)
10% to acquire funding - unsold toqqns to be added to platform reserve.
50% to distribute to the users of toqqn platform.
20% reserved for the team
10% for Marketing, Bounties & Advisors
10% platform’s future development reserve

FUNDRAISING FOR THE PROJECT
The Toqqn project is unusual in a way that we only aim to collect the funds that’s necessary for the platform development. We don’t aim to collect funds in millions.
We will be distributing only 10% of the total supply to raise the costs of building the project and to cover exchange listing fees. For us, the primary purpose of Toqqn is to benefit our user base. So 50% of the total supply is reserved for the users of the platform.
A total of 100 million toqqn (TQN) will be available during this period that starts in November 2018, investors can contribute through last week of December. Investors and supporters can purchase TQN with BTC, ETH, PayPal and Payoneer.
