A portal into the wonderland of Bitcoin powered censorship resistant social media. Powered by http://bitsocket.org

What

_opreturn is a Twitter bot that utilizes Bitsocket to monitor realtime events from Bitcoin cash powered social media protocols such as memo.cash and matter.cash and replicate them to Twitter using Twitter's API.

We're turning Twitter into an application-specific Bitcoin sidechain.

How

Bitsocket lets you listen to all realtime transactions from Bitcoin Cash blockchain through SSE (Server Sent Events)

You can listen to whichever pattern you want by writing a Turing complete query language called Bitquery

Why

There can be many powerful use cases, but it all comes down to the fact that for the first time we have a portal from uncensorable media into censorable media. Use your imagination.

For example, if your Twitter account gets banned, shadowbanned, or hijacked, you can still express yourself outside of Twitter through censorship resistant social media such as memo.cash and matter.cash, and they will be brought back into Twitter-verse and heard by others who care (who follow this account).

Features

1. By default it replicates all regular posts ("6d02" for memo.cash and "9d01" for matter.cash).
2. You can also trigger replication by simply mentioning @_opreturn in your message

Feature Requests

I think there can be many additional cool features that can be implemented. Feel free to open an issue to start a discussion.
