Generate a full featured social network that is secured with E2E encryption, has a ton of configurable privacy options, and is invitation only.
IronCircles
is a decentralized platform that generates encrypted private social networks. The platform makes it super simple for you to create one, join a friends, or both.
Each private social network is made of a your personal social Circles.
Advantages of a Private Social Network
Privacy Over Profit
IronCircles focuses on keeping private information private. Your data on this platform is E2E encrypted using Forward Secrecy, and you control who in your Social Network gets access to it.
Member Managed
Social circles should be aligned before adding new members with a vote. And privacy and security settings should be adjustable based on member preferences.
Always Anonymous
Always Anonymous
We know who we are. Our friends know who we are. The makers of our social platform don't need to know anything about us. And no cookies. No one likes cookies that didn't come from the oven.
Secure
Decentralized
Always Anonymous
Data breaches, ransomware, selling data as a corporate mission. It is getting scary out there. The current models are not working for us and it's time for something new, from the ground up.

E2E encryption is a must, but we also want nifty features, like hi-def video, unlimited file sizes, to-do lists, disappearing messages, and places to stash super private stuff, like account credentials and credit card numbers.

Inside a Circle
The usual
Messages, gifs, images, videos, emojis, reactions, and links. All E2E encrypted with Forward Secrecy.
Disappearing and one-time view messages
Messages can be deleted after a timer expires. Timer values span from 10 seconds to 1 year. With one-time view, the message is deleted immediately after viewed.
Configurable data retention
Default is device only. Can be upgraded for retention of encrypted data in 2GB increments up to 10TB.

Not talking about polling. These are real votes that kick off real transactions that impact the Circle. Ok, we also threw in polling.

Events, tasks, and recipes
