Decentralized Social

Today, content creators get the short end of the stick while corporations rake in billions in profit.Of the 4&#43; billion social media users, only around ~1% monetize their content.Similar to a carnival game, Web2 social media offers illusionary opportunities to win a big prize.You see top creators amassing large followings on platforms like X, but getting there yourself isn’t as easy as they make it out to be.To top it off, advertisers dictate what content sees the most impressions, which means social media becomes a game of engagement farming over quality.As creators play this game and grind their way to the top, all they have to look forward to are small advertiser revenue share payouts.But what if there was a way for creators and advertisers to coexist?What if you didn’t need to amass a million followers to earn from posting content on a daily basis?Post2EarnDAO is a great example of a new, innovative project that has emerged, enabling creators and communities to earn from the first day they sign up for <a href="https://wallet.deso.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">DeSo.</a>What is Post2EarnDAO, and how can you participate?Let&#39;s break it all down so you can unlock a new revenue stream as a fully on-chain creator or community!<h2 id="header-0">How it all started</h2>Post2EarnDAO launched on Openfund after an exchange between DeSo founder <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nader-al-naji-86b14a3a/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Nader Al-Naji</a> and DeSocialWorld founder <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/edokoevoet/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Edo Koevoet.</a><a href="https://openfund.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Openfund</a> is a permissionless fundraising platform powered by DeSo, allowing cross-chain crypto communities and creators to raise funds for their next big idea!With Openfund, <a href="https://openfund.com/d/Post2EarnDAO" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Post2EarnDAO</a> permissionlessly raised a total of $10,647 across four different funding rounds, with round 3 bringing in $6,154!<img

which we’ll highlight below.TokenomicsOn Openfund, every project can have a DeSo token attached to it, unlocking instant liquidity for founding teams to help scale their business.With Post2EarnDAO, the tokenomics are simple, and anyone who buys in earns dividends.Subscription Fee – 5%Any app in the DeSo ecosystem can utilize its full service for only a 5% subscription fee, which means advertisers with a wide range of budgets can participate.Dividends – 40%A generous 40% of subscription fees are used to reward Post2EarnDAO coin holders, while the remaining 60% sustains the service.Token Price – 0%There is a fixed price for each funding round with a 0% increase, which means early buyers get the best deal.As the Post2EarnDAO makes progress and DeSo advances as a platform, the token price will appreciate organically over time.Founders Appreciation – 6%The founding team earns 6% of every token purchase to support the success of Post2EarnDAO.Purchasing Post2EarnDAO tokens locks you into a lower price while also providing dividends to holders.But how do you determine whether or not you should trust a project and buy the token?On DeSo, all your content is stored on-chain, including your identity and reputation, which means it adds a layer of transparency never before seen in the fundraising world.You can keep track of everyone&#39;s activity before investing in the project to determine whether or not they’re legitimate.For example, you can look at <a href="https://explorer.deso.com/u/edokoevoet" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Edo&#39;s</a> (founder of DeSocialWorld and Post2EarnDAO) on-chain activity to see how long he’s been involved with DeSo, how often he posts, and who he interacts with.Additionally, you can see who purchased Edo’s creator coin, which, in essence, acts as a cap table to see if others with high on-chain reputations trust him.<img

src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/866127b69c374fdda5e0cdfbb12f8d99.webp" />Web2 platforms distribute revenue to top creators, leaving smaller accounts struggling, forcing them into choosing engagement farming over posting quality content.Post2EarnDAO flips this model on its head, enabling smaller Web2 creators and on-chain communities to earn from day one while enhancing the entire DeSo ecosystem.With Post2EarnDAO, creators and communities get early rewards in addition to what they can make from getting tipped directly from the community and creator coin buys.As Post2EarnDAO grows over time, the DeSo ecosystem becomes more attractive, drawing in more users and creators and fostering network effects.After 1.5 years, promising results suggest scaling Post2EarnDAO across DeSo apps.It&#39;s a win-win for creators, advertisers, apps, and the DeSo ecosystem.<h2 id="header-2">How It Works</h2>Participating in the Post2EarnDAO reward competitions is simple and easy.All you have to do as a creator is sign up for a <a href="https://wallet.deso.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">DeSo wallet. </a>Once you’re signed up, you’ll get a free $DESO airdrop, which you can then use to start posting on <a href="https://desocialworld.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">DeSocialWorld. </a>Here’s how it all plays out:<ul><li>Creators post content regularly</li><li>An algorithm gauges content engagement</li><li>Creators are ranked by engagement</li><li>Rewards are distributed accordingly</li></ul>Once you start posting and getting likes, reposts, quoted posts, and diamonds, you have a chance to win the rewards competition and get paid.As a creator, Post2EarnDAO is the icing on the cake of what you can earn from simply posting and engaging with the community on a daily basis.On platforms like X, you’re posting to get the algorithm&#39;s attention in hopes that you’ll one day get enough followers to get ad revenue dust.On DeSo platforms like <a href="https://desocialworld.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">DeSocialWorld</a>, you not only earn from the community from day one, but you also have innovative projects like Post2EarnDAO working with advertisers to pay you more!You can keep track of your live ranking on the Post2Earn statistics <a href="https://post2earndao.com/Statistics" rel="noopener noreferrer

three creators earning the most.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/e63fd190f65c42d18b9113f50433c7af.webp" />For example, <a href="https://diamondapp.com/u/StarGeezer"

he’s made $2,209 from creator coin buys and another $1,231 from diamonds, which are direct tips from the community for simply showing up and posting on-chain.StarGeezer only has 5,016 followers!As the DeSo network grows and more people participate in Post2EarnDAO, StarGeezer is positioned to earn so much more, as he is one of the top creators on the platform.You can even see which advertisers are

total of 672 $DESO has been distributed, which equates to $6,383, with 284 creators who have benefited.<img
