WeChat's Features and Limitations
WeChat is the most widely used social and payment platform in China, encompassing most Chinese users. As a comprehensive application, WeChat not only provides messaging and social networking functions but also includes payment, shopping, and access to public services. WeChat offers a wealth of features, but all users' personal and financial information is stored on Tencent's centralized servers. This data management model is not only vulnerable to external attacks but also places users' data privacy at significant risk in a highly regulated and censored environment. If the servers are hacked or data is misused, users' sensitive information may be leaked.
Alien's Innovations and Advantages
Alien adopts a decentralized data storage method, using blockchain technology to distribute user data across multiple nodes. This decentralized architecture not only enhances data security and privacy but also makes it difficult for user communication and financial information to be accessed or censored externally.
Every communication on the Alien platform is protected by end-to-end encryption technology, ensuring that only the communicating parties can access the message content, not even Alien itself. Additionally, Alien allows users full control over their data, including setting data access permissions and storage options. Users can freely choose to retain or delete information, offering a higher level of privacy protection than WeChat.
Alien not only supports traditional messaging functions but also integrates cross-chain technology and digital asset trading features, such as cryptocurrency and NFT transactions. Alien users can freely trade and manage their digital assets on an open and secure platform, enjoying true financial freedom and innovative payment solutions.
