in #lunyr5 years ago (edited)

The world is moving faster than expected and there are different ways we gather information from both online and offline. We all tend to need one information or the other which at times we don't know the best source to use. But of recent times, the best source has been making use of Wikipedia or searching the question directly on Google. Some individuals stand in as reviewers, whereby they purchase goods with their money and make reviews about them so others can make use of the information. Unfortunately, most individuals don't get paid for these services they render. Some do gain fame as a reviewer which they make of use when seeking for a job. There are some apps that were developed to pay users for the information they give but later on they removed the reward aspect from their system.

Zwerl came good at first and rewarded users for their contributions, but they decided to stop rewarding users. Now people can make use of Lunyr, where they can contribute as a content creator or act as a reviewer and they will be rewarded in crypto. Let find out more about Lunyr.
