[pre-ANN] Story.docu: Content Creation with Blockchain

Hello!

My name is Anton, and I'm a web developer with experience in web3 companies, developing smart contracts, dapp applications, front-end, and back-end. Later, I worked in web2, tackling various tasks like web applications, file and data processing scripts, etc.

I've started this topic because I'm looking to create a web3 application and would love to hear your opinions. As knowledgeable individuals here, how interesting do you find this, and how could my concept be improved or altered?

Apologies in advance if I've posted in the wrong section.

So, the application isn't exactly "new and unique"; it's essentially an app that consolidates data. Similar implementations exist, but none as comprehensive or with the same focus.

This app allows you to create content blocks, each with the potential for child blocks of unlimited nesting. Blocks can vary in types and content. For example, you could create a "block" containing "theme" sub-blocks, each "theme" block might then contain a "content" block representing an article, essentially creating a simple blog. You can allow others to use your blocks, enabling a community-driven blog. Moreover, you can create limited NFTs from a block and sell them at a set price, applying a commission on transactions within your blocks. Each block can be monetarily valued by users, rewarding creators directly.

Another use case could involve creating a block with a few fields, like an automatically generated unique key and a title, then converting this into 100 NFTs (each with a unique code) to serve as blockchain-based tickets for your event.

These are simplified examples to showcase the app's functionality and potential uses without overwhelming you.

Within this app, users can create anything they want, without limitations, crafting any content category they desire. To prevent chaos, we'll introduce user categories, including "regulators" who can influence content visibility, ensuring the app's content remains user-governed.

The app will feature its own token, which I aim to list through an IDO for easy exchange and to secure project funding.
All transactions within the app will be conducted using its own coin, meaning all purchases, sales, and even user block ratings, among other activities, will utilize this currency.

Early on, I plan to implement a voting system for users to influence project aspects like functionality, development, or marketing, eventually considering transitioning to a DAO.

The core idea was to create an application that wouldn't function without blockchain technology, distinguishing it from many apps where blockchain isn't fundamental but merely a pretext for launching a token or ICO. My goal is to create meaningful NFTs, not just quick digital art, but NFTs with content or logic that genuinely holds value.

I'm eager to start developing this application, but first, I want to plan everything and gauge interest from users and investors. I'm curious if you'd find such an app appealing or if I need to clarify further.

I could share the planned technical stack and structure, but I'm unsure if that's of interest at this stage.

I'm currently drafting a white paper but need more details and feedback.

I understand the complexities of launching a web3 app, securing investments, and going through an ICO/IDO. It's not just about development; marketing, legal aspects, and forming a strong team are equally crucial.

But you have to start somewhere, and I believe planning and clear description is the best first step.

I'm open to your ideas, suggestions, and constructive criticism. This dialogue might reveal the concept's viability or perhaps evolve it into something entirely different.
