The Economics of Proof of Brain Tokens - Explained!

in #dtube5 years ago


Today I talk through the basic economic principles behind the proof of brain distribution of tokens. When voting results in higher payout, many people incorrectly assume they are 'paying' a person in a traditional sense.

I like to use the analogy of a central bank. Instead of taking the new money and loaning it into the economy, in a proof of brain economy the new money is distributed through voting.

This opens up a whole new world of possibilities behind incentivization and gamification - some of which I will touch on in future videos.

What would you like me to discuss in future videos? Leave me a question in the comments below!

Dear @ecoinstant

Another great piece of writting buddy. Such a great refreshment to my limited knowledge about PoB :)

Analogy you used was right on point. Seriously solid read.

in a proof of brain economy the new money is distributed through voting.

Wouldn't it mean that after HF21, half of new money will end up in hands of very few?

Personally I believe that the best thing one can do is to find ways to receive solid delegations and convince several whales, that he/she is doing job of quality curator and is asking for their support.

Curation rewards may be really very profitable (without investing own resources).

Cheers, Piotr
