# So,  what is YOYOW exactly?

Although there will be many similar features between Steemit and YOYOW as both of which uses Graphene bottom layer, YOYOW is not a Chinese version steemit, YOYOW has its independent blockchain and its vision is far more than steemit. The biggest difference is that steemit intends to be a social media platform, but YOYOW wants to be a platform for other social media platform.

I don't want to release too much details today, because the testnet is not yet online, and many features are still under discussion. I just want to say that, steemit is excellent, but YOYOW know Chinese better. Just like uber is beaten by didi, amazon is beaten by taobao, paypal is beaten by alipay, telegram is beaten by QQ&wechat, in one word, Chinese knows Chinese better.

Some basic features of YOYOW:
All text content such as articles, urls are storage on the yoyow blockchain, multi-media content such as images, videos will be storage on InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) network. The underlying architecture used by yoyow blockchain is Graphene that provides lightning fast confirmation speed which is essential to a blockchain-based content platform.

 yoyow has a system called "Council".The members of Council are elected by stakeholders of the platform. Except for generating blocks, etc. the Council also has the right of hiding content from the blockchain if the content violates the law. BUT the  right can only be used when majority is reached in the Council.
PoF (proof of flow)
For any kind of social media platform and website, its value is always about website traffic. Platform carry information users needed. Traffic brings advertisement and profits to platform. So we believe user's value to the platform can be evaluated by how many effective traffic users brings to the yoyow platform, and at the same time, yoyow gives rewards to users that creating useful content which attract more traffic to the yoyow platform.

# Yoyow Crowdsale ICO Plan


Since there will be no English version at the first a few months, there was no marketing activities in English. That's why Iwe make this announcement just two days before the ICO.  The main purpose of this announcement is to let the English Bitshares community know what we are doing.   Though we indeed get a few reports in English media.
