# What is OmniSocial?

**OmniSocial** is a decentralized social networking platform built on **Polygon zkEVM**, designed to return control of identity, content, and governance to users. Unlike traditional social media, which relies on centralized data ownership and opaque algorithms, OmniSocial empowers individuals through **smart contract wallets**, **verifiable personas**, **on-chain governance**, and **user-owned content**. It is open, permissionless, and censorship-resistant—designed for creators, communities, and developers to build freely.

#### 🔑 Key Features

* **Smart Wallet Identity System**\
  Every user gets a non-custodial smart contract wallet that acts as their universal identity anchor, capable of holding tokens, NFTs, and social actions.
* **Persona NFTs & .omni Domains**\
  Users can create multiple on-chain personas (e.g. artist, developer, DAO lead) linked to their wallet. Each persona is represented by a unique NFT and `.omni` domain.
* **Decentralized Content & Posts**\
  Social content is stored on IPFS and anchored on-chain for permanence and censorship resistance. Users retain ownership of all content they publish.
* **Reputation & Governance**\
  Participation earns reputation across domains like creation, moderation, and DAO engagement. Reputation is used to vote, govern, and gain access to advanced features.
* **Cross-Protocol Integration**\
  OmniSocial interoperates with protocols like Farcaster, Lens, and Nostr, and supports federated identity via Webfinger.
* **Privacy & Security by Design**\
  Includes zkProof-based anonymous actions, optional 2FA/U2F, and post-quantum cryptographic standards from day one.
* **No Protocol Fees**\
  OmniSocial is funded through community contributions and grants. It does not impose fees at the protocol level, aligning with its open-source ethos.
