What if we implemented ad-like features in which the revenue was paid in percentages to the relays for hosting the ads, then some small amount to each user who viewed the ads?
That’s value to the end user for their time, value to the relay for hosting to their audience, and value to the marketer by deciding how far of a reach they want based on how much they want to spend.
We could even evolve it to an opt-in system (on the client side) and maybe a self-directed algo where I truly see ads for content I am interested in, and how many a day or specified time, not what someone thinks I am based on rage posting.
Way more effective in my opinion and generates a properly aligned incentive model for revenue generation without selling out users.
