https://news.bitcoin.com/network-launches-bitcoin-cash-beta/Last month, Yours Network CEO, Ryan X. Charles, announced their platform would be switching from litecoin to bitcoin cash for payments. Now they have a fully functional beta implementation for bitcoin cash. As a result, their platform is more reliable, streamlined, and cleaner.
With full bitcoin cash functionality, transactions on the network run smoother and contain less bugs. According to Charles, “payments are far more reliable now because we don’t have dozens of unfinished payment channel edge cases.” He continued, “the big difference between last month and now is that the app is actually good enough to use.”
This implies users should be able to manage their activity on the platform more seamlessly. The micro-payments provided by bitcoin cash also allowed for lower fees.
They also added 5 features in the last two days. These features include:
A voting model where anyone can up-vote something and earn rewards. However, earlier voters earn more rewards. This incentivizes people to vote — they can earn money from voting on something if they vote on something popular early.
A tipping feature. Anyone can visit someone’s profile and send them a tip.
The front-page is now sorted by # of votes, so it is better curated. Good content tends to rise to the top.
Yours Network now charges 10¢ to post content. This has eliminated most of the spam on the platform.
Yours Network displays reading time before and after the pay wall. This lets people have more critical information about whether they want to pay for what’s behind the pay wall.
