Decentralized Community Ownership: Reclaiming Control

At the core of the Towns Protocol is the principle of decentralized ownership. By mid-2025, this means that "cities" and all data generated within them belong to their creators and participants, rather than a third-party company. The protocol uses smart contracts and decentralized data storage to ensure true ownership of content. This eliminates the risks of censorship, data loss, or sudden platform shutdowns that are inherent in centralized social networks. Communities can freely evolve and self-manage without fear of outside interference. #TOWNS $TOWNS
