RE: "Ithaqa" Comic Book Update #164 Steemit Crowdfunding #Steemstarter

in #art7 years ago

A Steemstarter would be great. We can support with a vote without doing info our funds. This is why Steem should work better than most donation driven schemes. I guess Utopian is doing something like this, but having a system of rewards like Kickstarter could be even better. I'd like to see the whales doing more to patronise artists like the aristocracy did in olden days. It wouldn't surprise me if someone is already working on this

Sort:  

Exactly, you can support art without anything coming out of your pocket! Some whales could move amounts of money that would render kickstarter obsolete, and at no personal cost to themselves.

I find myself reflecting on the Renaissance patron system of art funding a lot lately as well haha. Mostly in that I wish I had a patron sugar daddy XD

Still, I also feel like steemit is the crowdfunding/crypto answer to that patron system of old. It's way more democratic anyway!
