The thriving of Bitcoin and blockchain technology brings up lots of new inventions and applications in that field. People wreck out their brain to challenge the new field. However, in my view, the so-called new creation, mainly referring to crytocurrency and their community is just an upgrade of the previous interaction platforms. Here are the reasons.
Naver, a Q&A service platform in Korea, which once dominated the searching engine field. It’s operating form is mainly divided into two parts. The users and the website owners. In the ecosystem of Naver, or other interaction platform resembles it, users get rewards, mainly in the form of credit or score, by providing or uploading free and qualified content; owners profit from the visiting volume attracted by the qualified contents. This exactly the same operating mechanism in some crytocurrency community, especially QunQun, almost nothing new in the new gadget.
According to the some introduction profiles of QunQun, users will whether get QunQun coin as a reward by uploads article writing by themself or actively fit in in the community or joining in the community and making contribution to that little system. See, something in common in both the operation mechanism right.
Maybe the only way that the new form doesn’t like the previous interaction platform is users of Navor can only use their credit or score to swap for some services only within the community. However, for users of QunQun system, they are able to make profit in the real term, and it’s the practical reward which can be transferred into profit in physical world.
And we can move this conception into the larger community, the whole cryto-universe. Whether it is Bitcoin or other altcoins, they somehow runs under the same mechanism, system rewards users who do “physical labor” in the community, and some system make profits through that “work”. In Bitcoin system, miners get Bitcoins through processing transaction information; in Stellar, users get stellar lumens by helping establishing the chain; in Oyster Pearl, that is more interesting, users is rewarded for they contributing their computing powers and website owners get PRL when they provide ad-free contents. Almost the same mechanism in all cryto-community. Doing “physical labor” and getting rewards. That echos the previous interaction platform actually.
It is true that blockchain technology and crytocurrency is still something brand-new and somewhat mysterious still. However, there is deeper truth in the mechanism that it somehow still echos the previous technology and operating mechanism.
