RE: Giving away my money, to spread awareness of steemitt?

in #steemit7 years ago

Yeah, i considered that as well! How awesome would that be! I really haven't looked enough into how wallets actually work, and how easy it would be to implement, but that was exactly what i had in mind :D Do you think it would be possible to first draw the money when it is redeemed or?

Yeah, you'd just have to make a script and put it on a server.

You would make a unique identifier that would only be activated when you produce it, with a designated amount of steem. Then you'd link that to a QR code, and put it on the steem coin. When they scan that, it would take them to a page with a form, and a link to steemit. That form would have a name to transfer the steem to. You would only need to keep a certain amount of steem liquid.

Since it uses a unique identifier that you activate, they would have to compromise your account to create additional access codes.

You probably wanna create a separate wallet just for it, just in case someone compromises the script in some way.

You could also make QR codes to make people accounts for them. Right now it's really hard to make accounts. They're supposed to be working on that though. Pretty sure that costs more though.

None of this is really that difficult, but it can be costly. You're basically giving money away for an advertising campaign.

That is true :) Unfortunately, i don't have money for advertising for steemit, even though i would love to. Just found the idea of giving something away really enjoyable. Maybe one day. Your answer is really great though, thanks a lot!
