Hey all,
We're a startup with a micro-rewards platform that simplifies rewarding 'stuff' down to a binary decision and a simple click. It works by having the user pre-decide their fixed amount (say 25¢ or whatever). Users (payers) can use fiat or bitcoin, money goes to the recipients bitcoin address.
At it's simplest, it works with just a URL with a bitcoin address eg:
https://tib.me/mytibs9YhLYtrVhQkmTdbDS51H54WyrxTx Since that's a testnet address, it opens in 'demo mode'.
The concept was essentially inspired by bitcointalk three years back - people were putting their bitcoin 'tipjars' in their signatures here, and I started thinking about what it would take to actually get people (myself included) to reward useful posters, because the 'cognitive hassle' of actually making a payment was enough to stop it happening.
Since profiles here can have bitcoin addresses, it'd be dead easy to integrate a profile or signature 'tip' button into the site. Not just for our service of course, the member could choose a service, or just a bitcoin URI.
I'm interested in peoples thoughts. More about us at
