What is Tlock

TLOCK is an application‑specific blockchain built on the Cosmos SDK that powers a fully decentralized social media platform, engineered for resilience to safeguard freedom of speech.

What is Different

• On-chain Instant Search – millisecond look-ups across people, hashtag, community, and topics (no external indexer)

• On-chain Personalized Feed – hyper-personal, keyword-level, interest-based “For You” for every wallet

• On-chain Reputation Layer – verifiable scores, Sybil-resistant, instant content rewards

• On-chain Real-time Ad Bidding – transparent & prepaid slot ranking

How It Works

Users can create profiles, post stories, build connections, and like or comment on posts directly on-chain. To streamline user interactions, gas fees can be paid by the system account if a periodic allowance is granted to the user.

Each of these transactions triggers real-time sorting of recommended posts, trending topics, categories, and communities, enabling dynamic content updates, with content quality measured by accumulated reputation scores.

Inevitably, it introduces challenges including on-chain storage, token onboarding, Sybil resistance, indexing and sorting, and content moderation, which will be discussed in detail. TLOCK meets these challenges with a hybrid approach: a censorship-resistant on-chain core, plus an optional service layer—AI translation, auto-hashtags, human checks etc. —that improves UX without compromising the decentralized core.
