RE: WritCoin - Creative Proof of Brain
Hey Raj it has been too long! I have seen the struggles of other writers who saw a way out of that hungry young artist that plagues creatives but only saw the trending with memes, average content self voted to the top and bid bots being used to boost copy pasted content.
A lot of these talented people tried their best and networked, found themselves in communities but in the end left because they were not eligible for curie votes anymore and the people who engaged with them were minnows and red fishes sho while socially brought so much value to the engagement a less than 1 dollar reward for something well writing pressures and disheartens the person.
The SMT that you are thinking might be a ticket to get more creative writers back in the platform.
Hi @maverickinvictus good to see you agian bro, it has been too long you're right. I'm gonna head over your blog for some gaming fun tomorrow ;-)
What you say here is so right... it is savage on steemit sometimes when you're relying on the quality of content when the simple fact is that it is probably less than 1% chance a whale or dolphin will read and reward you on an ongoing basis due to the quality of your content, even if it is exceptional. This means, as you say, there is a point where even curie will stop voting those exceptional authors based on how long they have been around (rep etc).
If I manage to get writcoin developed then I want to mitigate against this problem in one of the most unfairly under rewarded areas of writing on steemit, creative writing. This isn't just cause I write a lot of fiction & poetry though ;-) I honestly want this platform to flourish with high level creative works and I have literally witnessed great talent leave or reduce the work they put out because they are not getting any tangible reward for work that is of a mainstream publishable standard.
Anyway, I'm not sure yet exactly how the concept of writcoin could help but I'm gonna keep developing these concepts, even if only in my head for now :-)
