The perceived higher value itself is the incentive that will make people tell other people about it. People like to share things they really like or dislike. It gives them something to talk about ;-)
- zzzcpan 10y agoNo, not really. To tell each other they first need to find out about it too and not just find out, but also try to use it. You can benefit from this, of course, but it cannot be a force moving product until it reaches some critical mass.
- Gys 10y agoI was talking more in general. You seem to talk about building a platform to replace Facebook, Snapchat, Google and others like them ? Good luck ;-) Snapchat made it by offering easier photo options before Facebook did. Whatsapp did the same with messaging. Maybe some startup will make it with VR before the others do. But 'more power' and 'decentralized' will simply not do.
