Monetizing Personal Data: How BeFlow Turns Every Purchase into a “Digital Asset”

Validated Individual Expert

In today’s digital economy, major platforms generate enormous profits by collecting and analyzing users’ consumption data. Yet as the creators of this data, consumers have never shared in those returns.

Every QR-code payment and online purchase generates valuable data. This data underpins the trillion-dollar valuations of internet giants, while consumers themselves receive no corresponding benefit.

Web3 Enablement: Turning User Data into Digital Assets

Through Web3 technology, BeFlow transforms each consumer spending activity into a form of “digital asset.”

By participating in consumption, users can obtain computing power and BEE tokens. These digital assets are designed to accumulate over time, allowing users not only to receive immediate goods or services, but also to build longer-term value through ongoing participation.

This model breaks away from the traditional structure in which platforms unilaterally capture data value. It enables users to establish ownership over their data and benefit directly from it—shifting their role from passive data providers to active digital asset holders.

Privacy Protection: Dual Assurance of Security and Transparency

While safeguarding user privacy, BeFlow also ensures transparency and traceability of data usage.

With blockchain technology, transactions and data interactions are recorded on-chain, providing verifiable records that enhance data integrity and security. At the same time, BeFlow follows decentralization principles, allowing users to control and manage their own data independently, reducing the risks of misuse or monopolization by centralized platforms.

BeFlow’s innovation lies not only in granting users control over their data, but also in ensuring fair and transparent data usage through immutable blockchain records.

Redistributing Data Value: From “Data Intermediaries” to “Data Owners”

Within the BeFlow system, each consumption record can be converted into quantifiable computing power. As participation increases, users gradually build greater influence within the ecosystem.

This creates tangible value for consumers, while also enabling merchants to share data-driven incentives in a way that supports mutual benefit.

This emerging model of “data value redistribution” allows consumers to realize the value generated by their data, while helping merchants more effectively incentivize engagement and promote healthy ecosystem growth.

Building a New Value Ecosystem for Consumer Data

By assetizing personal data, BeFlow turns every transaction into a form of long-term value accumulation.

Consumers are able to protect their privacy while benefiting from their own data, becoming true owners rather than passive sources. Merchants, meanwhile, can rebuild trust and interaction with users through a transparent and fair blockchain-based system.

In this way, BeFlow is exploring a new consumption data ecosystem—one that aligns data ownership, value creation, and long-term participation.

  • Changpeng Zhao: Binance Wallet now supports identifying malicious addresses; you will receive a warning if you transfer funds to them.

    Zhao Changpeng posted on Binance Plaza stating, "The cryptocurrency industry should be able to completely eradicate address poisoning attacks and protect users. All wallets should simply check whether the receiving address is a poisoned address and block the user.This is a blockchain query. Wallets should not even display these junk transactions anywhere. If the value of the transaction is very small, filter it out. Security alliances in the industry should maintain a real-time blacklist of these addresses so that wallets can check before sending transactions. Binance Wallet is already doing this. If a user tries to send to a malicious address, they will receive a warning.
