Friend.tech Ends Development of Crypto Social Network

Friend.tech Relinquishes Control Over Smart Contracts

The creators of Friend.tech, a cryptocurrency-fueled social network, have relinquished control over the platform’s smart contracts, signaling an end to development work just four months after its token launched. Built on the Ethereum layer-2 network Base, Friend.tech burst onto the scene in August last year, allowing users to buy and sell “keys” linked to Twitter (X) accounts. These keys grant access to private group chats within the Friend.tech app.
