Pedity The user on boarding issue dawned on me too, since many new users won't have Lumens. So it's one of the problems I wanted to solve in creating Winsome (shameless plug for my SBC project :-D)
Winsome is a giveaway platform which can be used a as a faucet. IMO it's better than a normal faucet because you can quiz the requester to ensure he understands how to use your app.
Interesting idea. I hope it goes well and I look forward to seeing where this project goes.
Sparked-Wave Thanks for the good words ?
Your project is also very nice, I really like it and believe it has good potential.
Please let me know if you have any feedback regarding Pedity that can make a difference? I really like knowing areas of improvements.
FruitEater ? How many users till now and how much XLM rewarded on your platform ?
In my case, there is always going to be content writers joining, so they might not think in terms of trading.
Pedity Winsome is a new project created for this round of SBC. It's actually distributed a few gift packets, but in the grand scheme I have distributed as much assets as you :-)
Anyways I think you may have missed my point. You mentioned that new users need some XLM in their account to use Pedity. We ALL have this problem- minimum balance requirement is just how Stellar works.
You said you could probably sponsor 1000 new users. I could sponsor 1000 too. But what if we did this instead- You sponsor 1% of 100,000 new users, I sponsor 1% of those users. And we have have quite a few SBC projects. If we do some coordination, we could onboard 100,000 new users to Stellar, and all of our projects would benefit. According to stellar.expert, there are only 280K accounts. So with a small share from each of us, we could potentially ramp up the user base by at least 35%.
Winsome is a giveaway platform. In addition being a faucet, it makes users to really get to know your app. It took me <1 minute to create one for your app. You can tailor the quiz to whatever you want your users to know about Pedity.

You shouldn't dump a bunch of XLM into Winsome at once. Small, periodic giveaways are much more effective. For example, I'm planning to host bi-weekly micro giveaways. This generates periodic buzz for my app. If more SBC projects did the same, we effectively crowdsource the Stellar account bootstrap of our users.
FruitEater Quite interesting what you said, basically that seems like a way to generate trustline exterior to stellar network.
This model is similar to Steemit on Ethereum? Is there an ICO or Presale for this planned?
savebattgo It is better than Steemit platform, you can read the whitepaper and get more information on this

Regarding product token, most of the tokens can be earned through Pedity platform. ?
Between Pedity team is now 5 members strong and I am very happy to see project going in right direction. All the people who have applied to Pedity will be accepted very soon.
Some UI changes are also coming ?
Damn, so many things happening!! That’s very cool.
Will there be some content curation?
cryptobrant Hey cryptobrant,
Yes but it will be in a very different way than how other platforms are happening. You can understand it in similar terms to how it happens in staking ?
I will mark this and get it updated in whitepaper later so that it explains much better ?
Pedity I’d appreciate some clarification about this. If people can’t vote for content, what decides that a content is valuable to readers?
Thanks ?
cryptobrant They will be able to vote them but it will not generate curation rewards ?
Pedity will be different from how rewards are generated in steemit.
Pedity Yes, send an email to support@stellarport.io, it will get to me.

Pedity Team (We are looking to expand more ? )
I've added an account. One thing you might want to improve is if I am already in a category and want to make a new submission. Already have it tailored to the category you are browsing.
Are you going for jus the blogging market or do you plan on being a content distribution network for video as well?
Dr_Button_Pusher Hello Dr_Button_Pusher, can you explain it in detail so that I can note it down as area of improvement ?
Regarding term content is referred here to various possible categories listed below and are not not just limited to these -
1. Articles (Similar to Steemit but users don't have to depend on upvotes)
2. Videos (Similar to a media platform like LBRY which rewards user for video sharing)
3. Images(Similar to gettyimages but user gets rewarded in PEDI Tokens)
4. Questions and Answers (For every successful answer user gets rewarded and also the person who has asked question will also be rewarded)
5. And much more ... that will be revealed with beta time frame
So you can expect a lot of things ?
