I wish I had time to learn the coding languages... I'd do it myself. The "service" could be paid for through a 1 HP delegation to an account at the same time that 14HP or 24HP would be delegated to the newbie, both being put on a smart contract "timer" so that this account would essentially work as a bot to upvote with a curation trail, specifically curating account trails that focus on newbie content. The curation awards would then be siphoned off as needed to pay the developer's cost to maintain the portal that holds the code.
I could see it being a website where you as the referrer goes to enter your username and does a Hive Keychain approved contract that delegates 1HP to the developer for the ability to use the referral link. The delegation can activate the approval for hp delegation for the referral link's use...
Thoughts off the top of my head.
I actually did learn the basics of coding in a variety of languages, and have even made a game prototype, but the idea of personally hand-coding changes on the blockchain doesn't really call to me, so I leave it to others. :)
Your ideas have potential, there'd likely be ways to abuse it for people who are code/tech/blockchain savvy, but I'm sure those can be curbed. Wishing you lots of success, either way! 🙏
