Another On-Chain Social Media Platform Called Blockpress Launches on the Bitcoin Cash Blockchain
After the past few weeks with everyone talking about the on-chain social media application Memo, another similar platform has been introduced to the bitcoin cash community.

Moreover, Blockpress says that they plan to integrate the Inter-Planetary File System (IPFS) with the platform in the near future.
