We are trying to solve the spam problem by creating a kind of bidding system backed by cryptocurrencies.
We would like to know the opinion of fellow Bitcoiners (s) before we dive straight into it.
The whole idea was inspired by

Here is a brief:
Let us say there are two users A and B, both present on the Platform.
1. Customer A and B can sign up for the service.
2. On login, they will see four tabs Profile, settings (Whitelist, Default policy, Threshold, Keep messages below the threshold or delete Disclose Threshold, Allow attachments), Inbox, Junk (This tab will only be present for the users who have chosen to keep the messages below the threshold defined by them).
3. Customer A composes a new message and sees a new option to optionally attach crypto with this message (He can also choose a policy while attaching crypto). He chose to include and link his metamask with the platform. Hint: Make use of ENS and its subdomains.
4. If the crypto attached with the Email is greater than the threshold then the message will be delivered to the customer B Inbox and the position of this message in the Inbox will be adjusted according to the crypto left in it. We will start with only a single policy -A smart contract, so rather than sending crypto to customer B directly, A will send crypto to the smart contract and customer B can claim these tokens according to these policies).
Example Policy (Linearly decreasing for 4 Days): A sent message to B; landed in the Inbox; If B does not read it for the first day then (crypto sent)/4 will be deducted from the total crypto attached to it and so on, The position of this message will be adjusted accordingly in the customer A inbox. The day B reads the message, all the remaining crypto will be transferred to B. If the message isn't read even after 4 days, It will be deleted automatically from the Inbox.
