Interesting idea but already now people swipe purely out of boredom or, even worse, get addicted to swiping – what would that look like if they also got paid for swiping?
- robcohen 4y agoYes, this is an issue that needs to be addressed. On some level, people do get paid for seeing ads in the sense that the real content they want is being subsidized, so on some level, even if someone is "bullshit" swiping, they are still giving their time and attention so there is some benefit for the person be swiped in the aggregate. That said, I imagine the actual thing that would need to be paid for is someone's time, so posting a kind of smart contract crypto bond that someone gets for showing up in person to a coffee date or something like that. Yes it would still be abused, but there would be a equalibrium reached between price and time sacrificed. Maybe you make it so that you can only go on a certain number of coffee dates per week or something like that.
