Introducing 3Speak's New Upvote Feature for Top Creators
In this episode, Dan discusses an exciting new feature being rolled out on the 3Speak platform that will empower top content creators to upvote comments on their videos using 3Speak's own stake.
Incentivizing Creators with Large Followings
The key premise behind this new feature is to incentivize creators with large followings on platforms like YouTube to bring their audience over to 3Speak and the broader Steem ecosystem. By allowing these top 30 creators to upvote comments on their videos using 3Speak's stake, worth up to $50 per day, it is hoped that they will be motivated to actively promote 3Speak to their followers, exposing them to the opportunities to earn money by engaging on the platform.
How the Upvote Feature Works
Dan provides a step-by-step walkthrough of how the new upvote feature functions. Once a creator is among the top 30 on 3Speak's content leaderboard, they will receive a notification in their dashboard when it is their designated day to utilize the upvote feature. They can then select a recent video (within the last 7 days) and upvote comments using 3Speak's stake, rather than their own.
The creator is given the option to upvote comments with $1, $2, $3, or $4, up to a maximum of $50 per day. This "use it or lose it" feature resets each month, incentivizing the top creators to actively engage their audience and introduce them to the 3Speak platform.
Potential Impact on the Steem Ecosystem
Dan believes this new upvote feature will be a "killer" tool that helps demonstrate the unique "proof of brain" concept of the Steem blockchain. By empowering influential creators to directly reward engagement on their content, it is expected to drive more users to the 3Speak and broader Steem ecosystem, exposing them to the opportunities to earn cryptocurrency through content creation and curation.
Overall, this new upvote feature appears to be a strategic move by 3Speak to leverage the reach of top creators and accelerate the adoption of its platform, as well as the Steem blockchain more broadly. By providing creators with the ability to directly reward their audience, it aims to create a mutually beneficial dynamic that benefits both the creators and the 3Speak community.
