Wow. This is awesome. I have been complaining about the way the system is and has turned into. Everyone has monetised their rewards and now communication and good content doesnt really matter here. All one has to do is make a good post and promote it themselves to the front page else it will never get there. Everyone is now running bots and its killing the writing spirit of the less opportuned writers who are minnows. I think your approach to solving the problem is viable and can go a long way into introducing a direct influx of cash into the system and even expose the currency to the mainstream market
