Several blockchains have messaging functionality, a Twitter-like platform would be a pretty easy step from there, especially for Ethereum. The only potential problem would be the need to pay gas to tweet, which, I highly doubt anyone would be willing to do that. But judging from the (relative) success of Twitter itself, I have to imagine someone will soon try to imitate it in the blockchain space.
I have seen gas and know it's used in the eth wallet to send but what exactly is it and what does it mean ?
Do you maybe have some links to help me out or maybe you can answer yourself ?
