Facebook launches Facebook Date. But How Would It Go down on the Blockchain?
Hey Jessoulmates
The online world has become more of our world each day, we work online, we communicate online, we shop online, we find entertainment online and yes we date online.
Online dating has moved from scammy looking websites into the mainstream with apps like Tinder and Bumble only formalising what was already happening in things going back as far as AOL chatrooms or literally anything you could IM with online people found a way to find someone to boink.
Well, Tinder has become toxic for online dating culture and seems to be primed for disruption or at least thats what any customer who is not a Chad or Sugarbaby thinks.
That's why your trusted and family-friendly neighbourhood social media Facebook wants to save us from this scourge and also not have to pay Tinder a revenue cut of ad space it serves through the app.
Facebook dating
Facebook says it will improve the online dating space by providing users with more context about the person, their interests, freinds, collogues and algorithmically play cupid just like they did with Cambridge Analytica.

Blockchain dating
Now that you have the background I thought I'd have a fun thought experiment to trial with all of you. What if we had a dating app on the Steem Blockchain, running just as the front ends we have now, no changes to encrypt data, how much trouble and all hell would break loose on it?
I know steemder/@steemder was supposed to be the chains first attempt and bringing int he dating market but so far we haven't seen any development.
A Steemy online relationship
Throw a few pennies, Pennys way, she might just take note of you!
If your wallet ain't stacked things could get orca-ward for you
Don't forget about the delegation diggers
Don't let me have all the fun, drop a Steem dating meme in the comments :P
Is it really that different from the alternative personalities people put up on their dating profiles? Think about it

A steem dating app? Geesh that would be something! I already know with whom I want to match with! :PP
LOL! I’d love to see a steemit love story I think that would be epic! From blockchain to ball and chain!
That would be so cool! :D haha
Lol I wonder if there’s already been a steemit love story and we just low key don’t know about it
I'm almost 100% positive about that! :D
Lol though on steem they could find out about about someone unless you make an alt account then you might not have enough D to show off🤣

LOL yes imagine you could see everyone else’s matches and who they have been chatting to! It could cause some problems really quickly or perhaps keep people honest who knows?
Could be fun watching it unfold🤣

LOL decentralized domestic disputes sounds like this place would be so full of drama!
Wait 5 years until STEEM is $50 bucks each. You will have all the golddiggers after anyone with over 1000 STEEM. It will be great.
LOL! Gosh If steem has mass adoption and dating apps and a valuation of $50 anyone with stake would be putting themselves under a lot of scrutiny! I mean that would make my current stake see me become a multi millionaire in South Africa lol
It would be hilarious though,
If your a become a multi millionaire in south Africa with your wallet on show you would want to be careful. It won't just be the ladies after you.
