[Faucet&ZapRead] Sponsors idea

Open fervi opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

A very interesting idea may be to introduce a sponsoring system, which in ZapRead can increase the vote up to 10% (how much the sponsor chooses) and in Faucet simply sponsors in exchange for simple advertising.

Thanks to this:

  • I hope that there will be a cheap advertisement, which will be used by small projects and companies to promote their solutions (or even posts?).
  • Users will be happier having more Satoshi with their posting. Or
  • Giving up the upvote people will be able to reward more posts, by the same amount.

Very interesting idea! How does a sponsor determine who will receive the sponsorship?

We should be able to "target" certain users. I want to be careful here, because I want to ensure that the privacy of users is protected. Maybe something like all users in group X,Y,Z get sponsored? But then that creates a membership bias too.

Also - users will be able to "opt out" of sponsorship in their settings. Thanks!

In my opinion, the situation will develop over time. I think that the sponsors will propose new features themselves.

Surely it is worth to have the option of sponsoring all or certain categories.
