RE: Why Steem is successful DAO...

in #steem8 years ago

No problem. I have high hopes but I'm also a realist and a big player like facebook jumping in with payouts could also kill off sites like this. That's why I feel there is urgency to get people on board A.S.A.P. Hopefully this will take some of my suggestions seriously.

Sort:  

I remember you posting about Facebook might be thinking about tipping model. Do you think that would give content creators like yourself advantage? I know Facebook has a userbase and you as an artist have more chance to get your content visibility...eager to see what they come up with, we all can learn from such experiments...I believe we had some discussions before about having tipping button on each post just like Promote button so people can directly tip for author, but it is UI side of coding which can be implemented quite easily.

I think it would be great. I would surely use it. But I don't know if it would take off unless the people tipping also got paid like on Steemit. People are so conditioned to just "like" things I don't think they would tip if it came out of their pocket. I see the same thing on here. I get lots of votes but when I asked for help to crowdfund something on here it fell far shoot.

Yes, right! Community Crowdfunding part is still short I agree, but as platform grows, more users and more distribution.. I think it will be much wider audience for crowdfunding as well. We will see ;)
