  Own is the latest alternative to TikTok to emerge in the market, featuring blockchain technology and a token economy.


The article from TechCrunch dated June 17, 2025, discusses the launch of Own, a new social media platform that aims to revolutionize the creator economy by tokenizing content. Own allows creators to mint their posts as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), enabling them to monetize their content directly and retain ownership over their digital assets.

Own's founders believe this approach will empower creators and foster a more equitable digital ecosystem, challenging the dominance of traditional social media giants.
