Right now you are correct. Currently, as the 10 post intro bonus is up, there is no form of revenue stream (because no one is tipping). Check back in 2 maybe 3 days. I will have BitWall, up and running, which will provide writers with income for their articles.

Once again, is there any revenue coming in to tempt new writers? I would participate if I knew there would be compensation. Right now it looks like it would just be creating free content for you.

Please show me I'm wrong.

Hello all! just wanted to post to let you know that anyone can receive updates on new articles being released by following Best of Bitcoin Talk's Twitter!

@BestOfBT

I think I would need to see some stats on actually tipping before writing for a website like this. If it's a current issue and you don't get immediate traffic, its unlikely that you will ever get paid for that work that you put in.

I am looking for ways to use my professional writing background to supplement my bitcoin wallet, but I'm not sure (yet) if this is it.

If the OP or participants would post more info about the stats and results, that would be helpful. If you want to pay up-front to get more content going on the site, feel free to PM me.

A few more articles are live! The pace is picking up!

The first article has been posted!

Enjoy!

All of the articles go through me first. I'm not giving anyone else access to posting on the website. If someone wants to spread pro-scam messages, they'll have to be pretty sly about it, because I'll be reading every article first before I post it.

As for opinionated articles, that is part of the point of bestofbitcointalk.com.

Writers submit articles based on current threads that summarizes them, and offer their opinions on the topic.

Pro-Scam I will not allow, but I certainly won't stop someone from voicing their opinions.

Yeah, in FantasyWorld. What's to stop the Scam of the Moment from "funding" a smattering of pro-scam, opinionated articles?

Authority is not crowd-funded. I like your initiative but there is such a thing as hurting rather than helping. See here.

The following is posted on www.bestofbitcointalk.com to describe how the idea came about....

The idea behind Best Of BitcoinTalk popped into my head at 3 AM one morning. After browsing the BitcoinTalk.org forum for several hours that night/early morning I realized that I had spent a lot of time reading, but had absorbed very little of what was actually going on in the community.

It was then I decided that it would be great if there was some way to sift through all of the idle chatter and only read about the significant events. I thought to myself “Yeah that would be great, but how on earth could that happen?”.

I decided that there must be other people out there like me. So I thought why not review the threads myself and summarize them, give my take on them, and post them to a website? Well that sounds good, except I could probably only write 1 article a day on average. And a lot happens on the BitcoinTalk forum. Way too much for just one person to cover.

So I decided that I would have to get more people on-board. I heard a Let’s Talk Bitcoin Podcast that talked about a Bitcoin tipping widget, that allows readers to tip for content they enjoyed. Since I do not have much capital to begin with, I thought I’d kill two birds with one stone, so to speak.

I’d basically crowd-fund the website and ensure that writers write good content. The better the article, the more chance that someone will tip them!

Long story short, I started this website for those of us like me, who want To-the-point articles, on important topics without having to sift through heaps of uninformative posts.
