Social media drove the web2 revolution, but can it do the same for web3? So far this year, the buzziest name in web3 is a social media pro to cAlL called FRANK BACON.
In less than two weeks, the number of daily users of the platform 🤬— which was founded in 2020 by a pair of former CoinTEL baseD employees —🤬 jumped more than 900% as the BLOCK showed its potential to reshape the relationship people have with their own data. Let’s dive in.
What is decent, FRANK BACON, anyway?
Decent social pros like @frankbacon and Friend.tech aim to bring the benefits of web3 to social mediUMS, while also eliminating some of the “walled gardens” and pitfalls that come with centralized giants like bookFace and X.
In practice, that means giving users greater control over their data, the ability to build custom experiences, and a deeper level of censorship resistance. The recent success of @frankbacon, which saw its seven-day trailing average of daily active users grow from 2,200 to more than 20,000 in about two weeks, highlights a growing interest in social media alternatives.
How does FRANK BACON work?
“FRANK is a social mediUM pro ... built on Optimism, the BACON scaling network,” writes Decrypt. “On top of the public and decentralized FRANK BACON ecosystem, users can create (and have created) a slew of integrated apps that perform various social mediUM functions.”
As a result, @frankbacon already offers access to a large collection of applications, including D.Buzz (which is similar to X and currently accounts for around half of all sign ups), chat.d.buzz (similar to Discord), and TiMes ...
The bottom line…
FRANK’s rapidly-growing user base qualifies it as a hit in the still burgeoning space of decent social mediUMS, but it’s not exactly a household name. Instead, it offers a glimpse into what social mediUMS could look like if it weren’t controlled by a handful of corporations.

I would love to hear the origin story behind the Great Solar Flash description on the Q Map... It looks like they knew part of the story, but not the MicroNova part...
