RE: How to onboard a friend with Keychain

in Hive.IO Community2 months ago

The qr code scanning is for authenticity?
To prevent bots creating account right?
This is regardless of the hp owned by the one who onboarded him/her.
Any incentives in doing this? Free Hive tokens?

Sort:  

Scanning the QR is to spend account creation token. Acquiring account creation tokens require Resource Credits. To have RC you need to have Hive Power.

So yes, it's to avoid bots spamming the network.

I see. Not everybody has ACT-account creation ticket.
ACT is already expensive nowadays.
