About Popset
Popset is a mobile photo-sharing social app built on the Solana blockchain. Users post content (called "pops") and can decide whether to allow "collecting". If allowed, the post is minted as an NFT that others can collect, with options to set edition size and collection window.
Its core value is letting creators turn their posts into sellable digital assets without needing crypto knowledge. The platform covers blockchain gas fees, buyers pay in fiat currency, and creators receive payouts via linked Stripe accounts. This allows creators to earn directly from fans, rather than relying only on ads or sponsorships.
It addresses the traditional social network problem: platforms capture most of the value, and ordinary creators struggle to monetize. Popset offers a way to turn social posts into collectibles, enabling more direct creator-fan relationships, with collection records permanently stored onchain.
For the recent six months (March to September 2026), no reliable public information about Popset was found, so its development during that period cannot be described.
Popset announced a $1 million pre-seed round in May 2024, led by Izun Partners with participation from Michael Shaulov, Patricio Worthalter, PunkDAO, and others, marking its shift from concept to development ().
The same year, Popset launched on the Apple App Store () and Google Play (), becoming a mobile-first Solana-based onchain social app. Its core model lets users mint posts as NFTs and control edition sizes and collection windows, bringing creator economies and digital ownership to mainstream mobile users. These milestones established Popset as an onchain photo-sharing network with user-owned digital assets.
