Hi Stackers!
I'm Oscar Merry and I'm building Fountain Podcasts - a Podcasting 2.0 app that rewards both listeners and podcasters for the value they bring to the platform.
On Fountain you can:
EARN
by listening to any of your favourite podcasts. Earn more by listening to promoted content, creating clips, liking clips and comments, and supporting podcasts.CLIP
the most valuable highlights from podcasts. Earn when other listeners like your clips.SUPPORT
your favourite podcasts. Interact with hosts, guests and listeners with Boosts and replies. Stream sats for every minute you listen and send value back.
I'd love to open a conversation about:
- Podcasts
- The Value for Value ethos
- Incentives on tech platforms
- Anything Fountain related
Thanks,
Oscar.
<podcast:value>
tag that's defined in the new Podcasting 2.0 namespace - https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace/blob/main/value/value.md<channel>
level for show splits or the<item>
level for episode splits. The episode splits are definitely the most exciting as they allow podcasters to share sats with guests, producers, listeners, good causes etc.anything with "Free content" where the business is currently being driven by advertising revenue
is a candidate to be disrupted by the incentives made possible with value4value. Some ideas:if enough users end up sending value back to creators, that should enable new business models that don't rely on advertising
? Or is it something else? How do we define success criteria for the P/M Fit of v4v?I find it inappropriate attempting to define a p/m-fit for v4v as a model.
. I think I agree, I'm typically good at coming with potential p/m-fit for ideas but I think you're right - each podcast has its own p/m-fit. V4V is just an alternative way of "keeping the lights on", so to speak.
