ribbit

I hope we didn't unleash a beast.

A decentralized social media web application based on Ethereum platform.
基于以太坊的去中心化社交程序。

demo: http://shd101wyy.github.io/ribbit/

Please read this first:

This project is still under development. We would recommend you to try this project on Ethereum Ropsten Test Network instead of Main Ethereum Network, because using Ribbit on Ropsten Test Network is completely free of charge, and we might deploy new smart contract in the future and deprecate the old one. We might also make changes to the smart contract on Ropsten Test Network, so you posts might lose. Please use this project at your own risk.
You are responsible for whatever you post, and you have to pay for the free of the speech. Think twice before you make a post because your post will stay on the blockchain forever. It is unchangeable and undeletable. All your posts will stay public on blockchain, so please don't post sensitive data.
We do not host media files for you. We only save your text written in markdown to Ethereum blockchain.

Usage

Install MetaMask in your Chrome browser and launch it. Follow the MetaMask instructions and create an account.
Switch to Ropsten Test Network. Visit the faucet website listed below and request test ethers. Don't worry, they are fake ether coins.
- http://faucet.ropsten.be:3001/ and click request 1 ether from faucet.
- https://faucet.metamask.io/ and click Send me 1 test ether!
Visit http://shd101wyy.github.io/ribbit/ to start using ribbit. The first time you visit ribbit website, it will ask you to finish a signup. Simply finish the form and then click Publish profile to blockchain button to create your account. Wait for a few minutes until the transaction finishes, then refresh your browser.

You may notice the MetaMask window pop up when you click Publish profile to blockchain button, that is because writing data to blockchain isn't free. You would have to pay for the miner to execute the transaction. You only need to change the Gas Price field in the MetaMask window. The higher Gas Price you set, the faster the transaction will finish.

Make a post

Posts in ribbit are writtein in Markdown. There are two types of posts now:

Normal post

for example:

This is a normal post written in [markdown](https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet).

示例网站：http://shd101wyy.github.io/ribbit/

在使用 Ribbit 之前，请先阅读一下内容

这个项目依然在开发当中。我们推荐你使用以太坊的 Ropstren 测试网络 而不是 主网络，以为在 Ropsten 测试网络 上面运行 Ribbit 是完全免费的，并且我们可能会在将来发布新的智能合约并且作废掉旧的智能合约。我们也可能会修改 Ropsten 测试网络 上面的智能合约，所以你发布的文字可能会消失。请自己承担使用该项目的风险。
你应该对你发布的文字负责，并且你需要为你的言论有所支付。在你发布文字之前，请多思考一遍。因为你发布的文字将会永久的存留在区块链上。它会是无法更改的，且无法被删除的。所有你发布的文字将会是完全公开的，所以请不要发布敏感信息。
我们不会保存你的媒体文件，我们只会保存你的 markdown 文字到以太坊区块链上。

使用

在 Chrome 浏览器中安装 MetaMask 插件并启动它。根据提示完成 MetaMask 钱包账号注册。
切换至 Ropsten 测试网络 (点击左上角 Main Ethereum Network 然后选择 Ropsten Test Network 完成网络切换)。打开一下网站并且请求测试用的以太币。请不必担心，这些都是假的以太币。
- http://faucet.ropsten.be:3001/ 然后点击 request 1 ether from faucet.
- https://faucet.metamask.io/ 然后点击 Send me 1 test ether!
访问 http://shd101wyy.github.io/ribbit/ 开始使用 ribbit。当你第一次访问 ribbit 网站是，它会要求你完成注册。请在语言中选择简体中文，然后填写完表格，接着点击 发布个人信息到区块链 按钮。等候几分钟直到交易结束，然后刷新你的浏览器开始使用。

当你点击 发布个人信息到区块链 按钮后，你会发现 MetaMask 会弹出个支付窗口，那是因为往区块链中写数据不是免费的。你需要支付给矿工费用来执行交易。你只需要改变其中的 Gas Price（油价）。设置的 Gas Price (油价) 越高，交易完成的速度越快。

发布文字

ribbit 中发布的文字是基于 Markdown 格式的。这里有两种分类：

普通

例如：
