Allow apps to do creator payouts

Open bedeho opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

The ability to do scaled payouts can be a useful feature for apps, and even members, financed by that party, for example, because they want to go outside of the policy regime of the council, or they don't want to wait for the council, or they don't want to be subject to council budget dynamics, or any number of reasons. It would be very easy to allow anyone to do these payouts, and we should consider whether we should include other beneficiaries than just channels, such as raw accounts and members.

Would the scope of this be limited to $JOY or also include channel/gateway/creator tokens ($CRT)?

This was meant to only be $JOY, currently, there are no app tokens, but adding a sort of payout feature to creator tokens can also make sense, e.g. to power large-scale airdrops.
