EOSTalk LIVE! Special Guest Interview

This Tuesday, February 6 we will have Larry Sanger, CIO of Everipedia joining us on EOSTalk LIVE! to discuss the future of decentralized information and his visions to create a verified, censorship-proof platform utilizing smart contracts to record the documentation and editing workflow on a blockchain using EOS.IO.

For those who don't already know, Larry has been a critic of the Wikipedia platform he helped to create and later joined the team to create Everipedia to help bring the next generation encyclopedia to the world. Everipedia will reward contributors with a its own IQ token and set new standards help ensure the accuracy of the data added to the knowledge base.

What are Beyondbit and EOSBit?

Beyondbit and EOSBit started as a conversations in the BeyondBitcoin hangout series shortly after Steem was launched historically in those very hangouts. It began as "community tokens" or "tag coins". These cross-chain tokens give their holders the power to Summon a Whalevote to posts without having to pay for attention. And they are only given to people who Participate in Challenges, Win Contests and do other things of value for the community!

BeyondBit and EOSBit tokens are on BitShares! So make sure you have a BitShares/OpenLedger account to receive and send them for upvotes on your Steem posts!

HOLD on to your EOSBit!

These powerful cross-chain tokens will be very valuable in the future once EOS.IO has launched and associated DApps are brought online. We encourage you to participate in as many challenges as you are capable of and save up your EOSBit!

WE LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING
WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY!

Sort:  
  • As an investor, why should I invest in your project? What's in it for me?
  • Since you guys are holding massive airdrops, how are you planing to fund the project?
  • When should we expect an airdrop and what's the ratio (1:1)?
  • Blockchain is immutable and that means whatever information we enter is stored for as long as Blockchain (or internet) exist. How would you ensure that the information entered is correct or verified? And are there moderators that regulate the same? If so, isn't it a form of censorship? How would you counter this argument.

Some interesting questions that come into my mind:

  • Why did u favor the eos blockchain over others to build ur smart contracts for everipedia?
  • What were the most technical challenges to make ur platform work on the blockchain?

Thanks J

Question: How are you going to verify that what is posted on Everipedia is factual?

💬 Here is an exchange on Telegram by Larry regarding the content editor's risk/reward concept to help ensure accurate content is submitted.

Ooh, I'll be happy to answer the question how we will ensure that accurate content is submitted. However, that isn't the question I was answering in the highlighted bit.

  • How did you get the idea of having monetized version of Wikipedia?When did you realize wikipedia was just not enough?

  • I have learned that everipedia holds all rights to the contets/contributions made on it unlike wikipedia which uses creative common attributions, Wouldn't this discourage to the contributors since they have to give away their valuable contents to others?

  • I have always found it hard to preserve my edits/contribution on wikipedia which is one of the frustrating part of wikipedia, can I consider everipedia a safer options since it is going on blockchain?

  • And why are you choosing EOS platform out of many? How did you EOS as a perfect protocol for everipedia?

Here are my questions

Everipedia is a fantastic platform but Wikipedia has more editors on it. If Wikipedia moves to blockchain do you think Everipedia will be able to compete based on the number of editors?

Contributors pay some token to submit their entries. In the process a contributor whose entry is considered not good enough may lose his token.

Don't you think this practice will discourage new users?

Lastly, how do you intend to structure Everipedia's escrow service? Will it be run by an accredited escrow or be handled by Everipedia?

Why did they banned several dozen of Vandals banned from the Everipedia and how does the detection of Vandals on the site works?

  1. Why do we need more currencies when one would have been enough for all purpose ?

My question: How is the economic rewarding mechanism designed for knowledge contributors? Is there any rewards for questioners as a verification reward? My bitshares wallet: coinwww001
