“The word ‘voice’ is simple and universally understood. It’s also ubiquitous — as a search term, it returns billions of results on the internet. An ultra-premium domain name like Voice.com can help a company achieve instantaneous brand recognition, ignite a business, and massively accelerate value creation.”

In the press release accompanying the launch, the CEO of Block.one, Brendan Blumer, compared Voice with traditional social media platforms, saying:

“The truth is, current social media platforms are designed to use their users. Just look at the business data. Our model. Our content. Our attention. These are all incredibly valuable things. But right now, it’s the platform, not the user, that reaps the reward.”
