Hello everyone, the emergence of tribes through the steem-engine network has brought about the trending of sportstalksocial.com. Sportstalksocial.com is a tribe that promotes all sporting activities and encourages users to write on sports activities and events. To some people, they see sportstalksocial as the first blockchain social platform that centers on sports but they are wrong.

I personally have an account on two other sports blockchain platform which is;

  1. scorum.com and 
  2. sprtshub.com

I will quickly brush through each of this platform and highlights what makes them differ from one another. Let’s start with scorum, then sprtshub with sportstalksocial coming last.

NOTE: This post is gonna be broken down into two part i.e issue 1 and issue 2. The first issue will introduce the platforms briefly and also discussing on their features while the Issue 2 will talk about the cons and pro of each platforms before my decision will be made on which is the best. (don’t get me wrong, they are all great platforms).
