I'm participating in Based India because it feels like the perfect opportunity to connect with a vibrant, passionate community.
I attended the hackathon pre-event in Kochi, it felt special to see such a welcoming environment.
The energy in the room was contagious, and it sparked a desire in me to contribute something of my own.
It’s not just about building projects; it’s about being part of a larger movement where everyone’s ideas matter.
That’s what really drew me in. I wanted to make an impact and grow with the community.

1. Censorship-Free Conversation:
   Centralized platforms often implement censorship, limiting free expression.

2. Review and Commenting Freedom:
   Some websites, including YouTube videos, have restricted or disabled commenting features by default.

3. Immutable Blockchain Messaging:
   Traditional messaging systems lack transparency and are susceptible to centralized control.

4. Live Group Chat:
   Real-time group discussions are often limited or absent on certain platforms.

5. User-Controlled Data:
   Centralized systems compromise user data privacy and control.

Solutions for these above challenges offered by DeThreads

1. Ensures uncensored conversations, empowering users to speak openly without fear of suppression or filtering.
2. Enables commenting and reviews on websites where these features are limited, promoting open discussion and diverse opinions.
3. Stores messages in the blockchain, providing transparency, security, and immutability, ensuring that once a message is recorded, it cannot be altered or censored.
4. Introduces live group chat, facilitating dynamic, real-time conversations among users, fostering a sense of community and immediacy.
5. Decentralization empowers users, ensuring control over their data.

Obstacle
The initial plan was to build the entire comment thread and associated features within the extension. However, integrating blockchain tools posed a significant challenge due to limited support.

Solution: Using an IFrame Approach Mimicing an extension
To Overcome this Challenge we developed a dedicated website for the comment thread and blockchain integration, accessed seamlessly through iframes, ensured users experience the benefits of blockchain without compromising usability. This approach provided a flexible and scalable architecture, overcoming limitations for unfiltered conversations within the extension.
