- Comments on a post act like a post by that user
Global Mechanics:
- Anyone may push a global post via a scheme similar to DAPPS curation
- User may set thresholds and/or parameters that decide whether they will see a global post
Advertiser Mechanics:
- Can push posts to users via a scheme similar to Tribute to Talk
- Can pay users to share posts based on scope of reach
- Can target users by (voluntary) geolocation and preferences (i.e. micro payment to be seen by someone looking for groceries or a bar near a geographic location)
- User may set thresholds and/or parameters that decide whether they will see an advertisement
SNT Utility:
- Advertisers may use SNT to reward users for viewing/interaction
- Advertisers may use SNT to reward users for sharing posts
- Users may need to pay SNT to the network to receive posts. (though an SNT tax on advertisements may be sufficient?)
