I love reading myself and what more can I ask if can get some financial assistance from writing and assistaing the crowd. But, I wanted to understand hoe different is this from Steemit who already pays it's user for blogging/content writing?
Also are you planning to have your own platform where these services will be hosted or would it be something like a tip bot where someone who wants to get additional info can use the tip bot, pay for it and boom you are done.
Thanks and have a nice day.
Dear Leslie,
Reddit, Sttemit, Medium.com create pooled funds and distribute them according on how many readers react positive on your posts.
Basically, these approaches are still based on attention. You need to attract a certain number of people to get a reward. Nothing new in our advertising based internet.
The idea behind Readcoin is quite different. Attention is not the criteria for success, the criterium is the dedicated value of the content for somebody.
Readcoin links a content creator to the people who are strongly interested and can use this information the most. So you do not target as many people as possible, but you rather create valuable content for a dedicated audience.
Someone may provide content for an audience of just a 100 people, and can make a living out of it - if the content has the appropriate value for these 100 persons - and provided that these persons get access to this content.
The thing is, that we speak about something which is not there now. Once you see that you can monetise your knowledge and abilities, people will start offering it as online content. It's a new market with immense pontential.
