We are thrilled to announce our strategic partnership with Taki, the token-powered social network. Taki is built with an “EngageToEarn” product design that combines user coins and familiar social networking features to enable new ways for users and creators to engage with each other. Taki is incubated at SuperLayer, a leading Web 3.0 venture studio. OKX Blockdream Ventures is excited for Taki to empower creators, strengthen online communities, and make innovations in Web 3.0 accessible, valuable, and fun to the many users who are starting to engage with crypto.

Taki provides a unique engagement platform for creators, users, and crypto enthusiasts, who can earn a daily income by simply posting content and chatting with others about things that interest them.

There continues to be a significant opportunity to change how users engage with social networking platforms. For example, TikTok now has over 1 billion monthly active users, making it one of the largest social networking platforms on the world, despite launching more than a decade after major incumbents like Google and Facebook entered the market. While these large platforms continue to build on traditional Web 2.0 models, we expect Web 3.0 platforms like Taki to fundamentally change the relationship between users and the platforms they use to engage with each other.

Commenting on the announcement, Dora Yue, Founder of OKX Blockdream Ventures said “ Taki is bringing critical innovation to a fast-growing industry. As the size and diversity of online communities and the content they produce continue to grow at such a rapid pace, we believe emerging online communities will need an alternative to the traditional, centralized Web 2.0 platforms and business models that dominate today.

Taki changes this model by enabling any user on the platform to build and grow their personal economy with user coins; providing compelling incentives for creators and their fans to build truly high-quality communities and content; and by helping to shift power from platforms to the communities that make them so valuable. We are excited to partner with a transformative platform like Taki to help these next-generation communities scale, especially given the team’s deep experience with both Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 platforms, and their commitment to building great user experiences.”
