With Gems, perform easy micro tasks on top of the Ethereum blockchain

in #tokensale6 years ago

Gems, is serving as a decentralized, open-sources, human task crowdsourcing protocol

Let’s get to the bottom of this one

There are a few tasks that the computers can’t complete. However, humans are needed to complete these tasks. In this arena, used as a wide range of large scale distributions. Micro tasks can complete these independently. It does require human judgement.

There are huge corporations that pay workers to perform micro tasks online. Apparently, the buzz was generated post Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk). But there are adversities with the existing centralized marketplaces. There is a high charge per product and the workers eliminate themselves from a potential increase in payment.

Solutions provided by Gems

The Gems solution increases pay for workers, decreases cost for requesters, enables participation for those unbanked, and introduces a quality management solution, while facilitating the broadening of the network.

• Solution for the problem: Fees

Gems does not charge a centralized fee for transactions on the platform. The only cost on the Gems Platform is gas used on the Ethereum network. Workers and employers will likely share this benefit and return to a fair equilibrium. The end result of having no fees on the platform is a more efficient marketplace for both miners and requesters and the removal of the rent seeking middlemen.

• Solution for the problem: Participation

On the Gems Platform, users do not need to verify their identity to complete tasks. The reason for verifying identity is rooted in preventing malicious actors from abusing the network. The Gems Protocol, and specifically the staking token mechanism, makes the Gems Platform less susceptible to such attacks. In the future, as the Gems Platform branches into areas where information about the miners (geographical, demographical, etc.), may be helpful to requesters, it may allow miners to voluntarily verify to access these specific tasks. Furthermore, if we elect to allow members to voluntarily verify certain information, it can utilize emerging decentralized protocols (e.g. Bloom) to promote an accurate, speedy, and network contributive approach. For those that verify their identity, it may elect to mint Gems for new miners and allow them to hook into an Ethereum faucet to cover transaction costs, to facilitate the broadening of the Gems Network early on.

• Solution for the problem: Payment

Paid on the BlockChain via GEMs. Miners are rewarded for successfully accomplishing a task with GEMs, the reward system of the Gems Platform. Storing GEMs, just like any other ERC20 token, does not involve detailed information about your bank, allowing those who are unbanked and would like to participate to easily do so. Blockchain payments, through the Gems Payment Channels, will reduce necessary transaction fees, which will make transactions on the platform incredibly cost efficient. As blockchain technology gets further disseminated at an increasing pace, being paid on the blockchain will become increasingly attractive. Furthermore, as OTC protocols such as 0x begin to gain momentum, the barrier to transfer between GEMs and other tokens decreases dramatically.

• Solution for the problem: Usability

Open Sourced UI/UX and Modules. The Gems team will work hands-on with early requesters to build reusable UI/UX open source modules to be used on the Gems Platform. Furthermore, the Gems team will build and open source reusable components of modules that will allow the ease of use for anyone to build another module. The Gems team will first build Modules that revolve around AI tasks. Starting with AI tasks, the need for data and specifically scalable annotation services comes from the wide adoption and use of machine learning and specifically deep learning, both subsets of Artificial Intelligence.
