Just posted in IPFS and Filecoin for Journalism
reposting hereā¦
Fascinating meetup in Philly.
I had some questions relating to journalism, how Filecoin might facilitate a new journalism content ecosystem that rewards journalists in ways they havenāt been rewarded before. Vettage is decentralized, collaborative multimedia journalism just about to enter a beta, and Iād like to invite people to test drive to improve collaboration towards a better journalism and better journalism business model.
For now thereās an early site at beta.vettage.com ā built in PHP but looking to migrate into JavaScript with IPFS for content collaboration. As independent signup is currently disabled, feel free to message me to create a new login.
First question would be, if, in fact, it is possible for IPFS users to decline from hosting bad content, how could that be ensured in a collaborative content ecosystem like Vettageās?
Second question would center upon financials ā are Filecoinās incentives to engage with content enough for journalists to want to be involved? How to get this message out to them?
