Over Zoom, Al-Naji explained that BitClout was always really just a proof of concept for DeSo. “We wanted to essentially launch a demo app that showcases the features of the DeSo blockchain,” he said. “But what happened, which is kind of weird, is the BitClout app kind of exploded. A lot of mainstream celebrities joined—Tyga, Antonio Brown, Diplo, Blau all have profiles on the DeSo blockchain through the BitClout app.”
