Simple question: Why?
In detail: Why should I pay for someone redirected ramdomly to my site when visiting another homepage? Why would a visitor of startuptwister want to be rediected randomly? Why the need for Ethereum?
Seems to me as an overcomplicated, weird solution to a discovery problem that is much better handled without the "random" factor.
- quambene 7y agoIt is advertisement: You are paying to forward traffic to your site. Think of 'Chatroulette for startups'. Doing it on Ethereum has the advantage that you don't have to provide your credit card details, and that we don't have to integrate Paypal, Stripe, etc. Also, an auction system implemented in a classical way would be much more complicated.
- thojest 7y agoThe point is that you have a tool for getting very early feedback for an idea/landing page you want to showcase and do not have to provide an MVP, like in the case of Show HN. Further more, registering your page on startuptwister, you contribute to the popularity of your site and all others listed, there. It will provide some network effect, if it is used frequently.
