Binance Labs, the venture capital and incubation arm of Binance, led the $1.5M seed round for Bulletin Board System (BBS) Network, a decentralized Web3.0 public network of user-run online message boards.
BBS Network is a SocialFi project that enables content sharing to reward creators, curators and other stakeholders with its own native token. Revenue generated by the platform is shared across all BBS ecosystem participants in a fully automated, transparent and market-driven manner.
Eyal Hertzog, Founder and CEO of BBS, said: “The mission of BBS Network is to return control of content and its economic upside back into the hands of social media users. We are excited to cooperate with Binance Labs to further decentralize the reach of SocialFi, the next great frontier for blockchain. The investment will enable us to focus on building and launching new features such as Native App, Search Engine, and Cross-BBS Authentication.”
As a decentralized social network, every post on BBS will be minted into an NFT for better value transfer, and BBS will also leverage an NFT Bidding Model, which enables anyone to purchase the ad space real-estate of any post (NFT) across the network at transparent prices.
“Our team has been deeply exploring the Web 3.0 SocialFi landscape, and we are excited by what decentralization can do for the creator economy, as well as billions of daily social media users.” Ken Li, Investment Director of Binance Labs said, added:
“BBS Network’s founding team has a strong track record in the crypto ecosystem — Eyal was previously the co-founder and CPO of Bancor, one of the first mainstream decentralized trading protocols. It is a unique opportunity for us to work with a group as crypto-experienced as Eyal and the BBS team.”
Other co-investors in the BBS Network seed round include Digital Currency Group, Polychain Capital GPs, Node Capital, NFX, and DAO Maker.
