It's a nice proof of concept, but $0.3 for posting seems extremely expensive. In addition, there's no guaranteed visibility unlike creating an ad on any platform, so why would I want to post here? (I'm not trying to complain, I'm curious if I'm missing anything)
- Legogris 9y agoCould you elaborate on how you mean there's no guaranteed visibility?
- ecesena 9y agoWhy would you pay x > 0$ for posting an image? I think the only reason is if you're somehow advertising something and you expect somehow a return > x. Block chain could be great, but you also need somehow to guarantee me a level of visibility, like an ad provider does. For example, even the job posts on HN decay slowly in the homepage, guaranteeing a pretty good visibility. Otherwise the risk is that I post an image, paying, and suddenly other people post and mine disappears immediately. Again, I'm not 1. complaining about 4chan, and 2. complaining about this as a proof of concept. But this as a real product has no incentive for me to really pay for posting.
