BEARISH π : Dogecoin Founder Rejects Vitalik Buterinβs Creator Token Proposal
Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, has proposed a new model for "creator tokens" that integrates decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) with prediction markets.
- The model aims to reward high-quality content and engage audiences by giving backers a stake in successful outcomes.
- Buterin notes existing platforms prioritize volume over quality, exacerbated by AI-generated content.
- Creators would issue their own tokens and apply to curated DAOs, where members vote on content acceptance.
- Speculators could bet on submissions gaining approval through prediction markets.
- If accepted, creator's token value may rise; DAOs would burn some tokens to increase scarcity and potential value.
Billy Markus, founder of Dogecoin, criticized the proposal, labeling creator coins as "dead tokens" and doubting their long-term viability.
- Markus suggested that most creator coins follow a similar decline as many other tokens released annually, ultimately losing relevance.
