Dance credit
TikTokers sometimes include DC in the captions of their videos when giving credit to the original creator of a dance move. For example, when a user posts a video of herself doing a new dance move, she may caption it with, "Obsessed with this. DC: @doeJohn."
TikTokers began using DC in the late-2010s to quickly give props to the original creators of a dance move. As a result, users recognize the acronym as proper etiquette instead of blatantly ripping off content. TikTokers may also use IB instead of DC, which stands for "inspired by."
Example
