Block.one孵化了Voice九个月，现在它聘请了一支新团队来运营这个社交媒体平台
2020年3月25日，纽约市讯—奖励用户和内容创作者的社交新闻平台Voice今天宣布获得Block.one的1.5亿美元资金，启动其独立运营。
该平台的宗旨是解决现在媒体界的很多问题，如数据所有权、假新闻、机器人。这个平台由Block.one的CEO Brendan Blumer和CTO Dan Larimer构想和孵化出来。
“我们在创造活着的新闻而不是静态的新闻平台，” Block.one的CEO Brendan Blumer说。“Voice已经做好准备，要从根本改变媒体平台的工作方式，现在也到了Block.one把接力棒传递给Voice CEO Salah Zalatimo，让Voice在他的领导下为世界各地的内容创造者创造真正独特的体验的时候了。”
在Salah的领导下，Voice会作为独立业务运营，这1.5亿资金将用来扩展其运营、搭建公司人员队伍。
“现在媒体和社交媒体版图在不断融合，”Salah说，“由此带来的互动数字平台也不行了。我们注意到，因为社交媒体在利用个人数据的时候不透明、内容规则朝令夕改；如果你需要聘请一大批人去掉讨厌的信息，那么这个平台本身就有些问题。Voice希望能够在社区中促进真实、透明和人权，从而在我们的媒体平台上减少分歧、重建信任。”
2020年2月14日，Voice 在美国启动了beta测试版，这是公司分批启动项目的一个阶段，这样才能获得实时反馈、测试和迭代。平台搭建在Block.one的旗舰EOSIO协议之上，它也是旨在推动区块链大规模使用、取代旧系统的第一个大项目。
Voice是一个媒体平台，它通过鼓励真人用户创作、分享、发现和推广内容重新定义了媒体。Voice自给自足的思想经济和对Voice 代币的利用（如果有）让Voice能够把控制权归还给用户，让他们能够有机会直接从自己的思想和在平台的互动中获得利益。Voice构建于EOSIO协议，创造于Block.one，它从区块链技术的内部特征中获益匪浅：安全性、责任性、不可变性和可审计性，这些都能促进应用的可信且透明的社交交互。获得更多信息或注册获得beta访问权限，请访问voice.com。

Block.one incubated Voice for nine months before hiring a new team to run the social media platform
NEW YORK CITY, NY, March 26, 2020 – Voice, the social news platform that rewards users and content creators, announced today $150 million of capital from Block.one to kickstart its independent operation.
The platform, which aims to address many of the flaws in today’s media world, including data ownership, fake news and bot manipulation, was conceived of and incubated by Block.one’s CEO Brendan Blumer and CTO Dan Larimer.
“We are creating living journalism instead of static news platforms,” said Block.one CEO Brendan Blumer. “With Voice setting out to fundamentally change how media platforms are working, it was the right time for Block.one to hand the reins to (Voice CEO) Salah Zalatimo and allow Voice to grow under his leadership to create a truly unique experience for content creators everywhere.”
Under Salah’s leadership, Voice is to operate as a separate business and will deploy the $150 million in capital to expand its operations and build out the company’s workforce.
“Today’s media and social media landscapes are rapidly converging,” said Salah, “and the resulting digital forums for engagement are broken. We’ve witnessed a profound loss of trust on social media sites given their opaque use of personal data and capricious content regulation rules: If you need to hire armies of people to remove disturbing content, then there’s something fundamentally wrong with the platform. Voice wants to bridge divisions and rebuild trust in our media platforms by promoting authenticity, transparency and humanity in our community.”
Voice Beta launched in the U.S. on February 14, 2020, as part of a phased rollout to allow for real-time feedback, testing and iterations. The platform, which is built on Block.one’s flagship EOSIO protocol, is the first large-scale project to drive mass adoption of blockchain to replace legacy systems.
