RE: STEEM Is Cutting Edge: Steemit And DataWallet In Agreement: Steemians Will Be Able To Sell Their Own Data (IF THEY WANT)!!!

in #steem7 years ago

I don't understand? In fact, I don't understand the whole post having re-read twice now. Well, that's not strictly true. We're already rewarded for our content on Steemit, that is to say, if someone upvotes it or at the very least you upvote it yourself.

This should excite everyone. We are going to have the ability to monetize our data from Steemit providing another revenue stream. This is enormous. Again, this is something that was discussed the last few years about one of the benefits of blockchain.
What exactly is DataWallet doing and or offering?
    Are they offering to monetize your data that you have on Facebook, Twitter et al?
    Surely they're not monetizing your content on Steemit?

It is opt-in data selling....you can elect to have the app collect your data and if you want to sell it, you can...if not, then you dont.

Collect your data from where? Steemit?
Sell it to whom?

Everywhere, or at least integrated sites Amazon, Facebook, Steemit. And its purchased by any company that wants to build consumer profiles.

Ah, so it's actually not Steemit centric then. I understand now. Thanks

Upvoted with my one cent to make this visible for noobs! How I understand it, data wallet collect data similiar way as websites like facebook. These websites track your habits and klicks in internet and then they sell that data without paying you. With data-wallet you can sell that data your self, allowing you to profit from it.

That's the same Q in my mind. I think it depends on how Datawallet is going.
