The Echo Blockchain is set to celebrate its genesis block and official launch in July 2024. Node owners have authorized a pre-launch sales event for early adopters who wish to own and operate a part of the core infrastructure that will secure and protect Parler. In addition, Parler apps are being retrofitted to function as nodes.

This integration will enable Parler users to participate in maintaining the blockchain directly from their mobile devices, contributing to the network’s security and decentralization while enjoying the benefits of being part of the Echo ecosystem.

At launch, existing Parler users will discover new features in their app, including a link to their ParlerPay rewards wallet and a dashboard displaying their daily Echo earnings for participating in the Parler community.

Imagine you are part of a frequent flyer program with an airline. Every time you fly, the airline tracks your miles and credits them to your account. At the end of each month, they review your activity and reward you with extra miles or perks based on how much you’ve flown.

Now, let’s translate this to the Echo Blockchain and its licensed nodes. Think of Echo as a similar system, but for social media interactions instead of flights.

1. Activity Validation:
   • When you use Parler, every action you take (like posting, commenting, or liking) is tracked by Parler, just like the airline tracks your miles.
   • This information is then sent to the Echo node network, which is a group of computers (nodes) that work together to verify the data.
2. Validation Process:
   • The nodes check that all your interactions are accurately recorded and legitimate, similar to how the airline verifies your flight miles.
   • Once the nodes confirm everything is correct, they approve the data.
3. Proof-of-Impact Report:
   • After validation, a daily report called “Proof-of-Impact” is created. This report is like the airline’s monthly statement showing your activity and rewards.
   • The Proof-of-Impact report ranks all users based on their interactions on Parler.
4. Daily Distribution of Echo Tokens:
   • Based on your rank in the Proof-of-Impact report, you receive a portion of Echo tokens, which are like bonus miles or rewards points.
   • These tokens are distributed daily, giving you tangible rewards for your engagement on Parler.

You are an avid user of Parler. Each day, you post interesting content, comment on others’ posts, and get a lot of likes and interactions. Parler tracks all these activities, just like an airline tracks your flights.

Every night, the Echo node network reviews your activities to ensure they are genuine. Once confirmed, the nodes compile a report ranking you and other users based on your engagement levels.

The next morning, you wake up to see that you’ve received Echo tokens in your account as a reward for your active participation, similar to how you might receive bonus miles from an airline. These tokens can be used within the Echo ecosystem, giving you tangible benefits for your contributions.

By performing these critical functions, Echo Licensed Nodes ensure the system is fair, transparent, and rewarding for all users.
