Status Network Token (SNT) is an Ethereum-based token that powers the Status Network, a secure messaging app, crypto wallet, and web3 browser. SNT is used to reward network validators and is required for certain actions such as registering user names and voting on the future of the network. The Status Network aims to provide users with a secure and decentralized messaging platform and smartphone interface that allows them to connect with Ethereum-based decentralized apps.

The Status Network is an open-source web application that offers a window into the emerging decentralized web. With the messaging feature acting as a platform, the Status Network connects directly to the Ethereum network, adhering to its permissionless, decentralized, and trustless principles. Additionally, Status claims to be a portal to irrefutable commerce, with no extra charges, peer-to-peer payments, and encrypted p2p conversations.

One of the major challenges faced by the online community is the increasing use of social bots. Social bots are automated software that manage social media accounts, advocate for specific views, promote campaigns, and sway public opinion. These bots corrupt online debates by giving their messages fake credibility and influencing people. Status aims to solve this issue of social bots and media manipulation by using decentralized technology based on the Ethereum blockchain.

Status is designed to be easy to use for mass adoption, with a user experience that is comfortable and well-suited for the average person. The platform is open-source and charges zero fees, giving users total control over their data and respecting their rights.

The native token of the Status Network is the Status Network Token (SNT), which is a modular utility token used to power the network. The SNT token is a crucial part of the Status ecosystem, as it is used to reward network validators and is required for certain actions such as registering user names and voting on the future of the network.

Status was founded by Carl Bennetts and Jarrad Hope, and the whitepaper was published on June 15, 2017. The company's goal is to be the first decentralized messaging platform to reach the West or developing countries, and its use of decentralized technology and the Ethereum blockchain positions it well to achieve this goal. With its focus on security, decentralization, and ease of use, the Status Network aims to provide a messaging platform that is both private and accessible to the average person.
