really good idea. What competitions did you have in mind?
Ha! I was thinking you guys would come up with that. :-) Well, since I'm an ideas guy, and not a 'doer', I guess I can work this through a little.
Who would be into a competition on the Internet that grows in respect each year and who would also appreciate an awesome crypto purse, an alt at that?
Well, people who already have their lives mostly on the Internet. Gamers are the 1st thing that come to mind. I also really, really like the idea of making it a morality thing, like the Nobel Peace Prize and whatnot. Maybe the best 'alternative' news (free media) source? A 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place award scheme for each: Most neutral reporting, most beneficient/effective reporting, and the best full-disclosure/revealing reporting over the last year. Most informative reporting? Maybe have one for rookies, too!
Have a Hero-of-the-Year competition for actual doers. People who save others from certain danger. People who come out and whistle-blow on perps and corps of all kinds. People who actually come up with some new idea that they implement and make the world a better place. True leaders, if one can be found. Etc.
For gamers, unrelated to the free media and Hero-of-the-Year possibilities, it could be best new game of the year; most popular game of the year, etc.; most unique, novel, or new; most educational; etc.
What else?
CRYPTOS: Best new crypto website. Best new crypto company. Most user-friendly and useful crypto app.
Music: etc.
Art: etc.
Website design: etc.
I don't know....What else? What could be as big as the Oscars or Nobel Prizes?
Maybe just bottom feed the idea with a swimsuit competition, etc. People would probably pay to see and vote. The votes fund
The Blue-Crypto Award (TM -
), the advertising, and the management. People could always donate, too, especially to get it rolling, or even 'invest', perhaps.
No matter what, make sure people vote with UNO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Use the blockchain technology!!!!!
...Talk about stoking UNO buy-side support!
really great idea. An award for an alternative newssource voted for by the uno-people and awarded with crypto is a great idea! That gives us mediaattention for sure since the media will be awarded themselves.
about the voting: we don't even need to have something coded for it. Someone could be setting up adresses for each nominated newssource (or artist or what ever we choose to award) and people would just send a small amount of uno to the adress assigned to their favorit newssource/artist/[...]. Voting would be anon. The one evaluating the vote afterwards could just go on explorer and look which adresses voted and give them their weight. The more uno you have the more counts your vote in the choosing of the uno-blue-crypto-award. Voting and donating could be combined too. So people would just send the amount of uno they want to donate to the award-fund to the adress of their favorit nominated party.
This is easy to do, actually and would be a really great promotion for Uno. I very much like the idea of the blue-crypto-award! Great promotion!
We could have that at uno-bithday for example - once every year.
