Lately today, I have been thinking of how social media has spent nearly last 20 years teaching people how to get attention. The direction, however, in the last few years has been silently shifting, that is the opportunity to help people make money from it, and for which same and one of the primary reasons I was super pumped on Online+ from ION. Hence, things beyond creator monetisation are to be thought. Look at Facebook Marketplace. Look at TikTok Shop. Look at YouTube Shopping. This is now obvious, social platforms are becoming commerce platforms. But I think there’s another layer of issue that exists. Why should a creator need one platform to build an audience, another to sell products, another to handle payments, and another to manage customers? Why not a marketplace built into the social network itself. Where creators can open stores, sell physical and digital products, and accept payments in their choice of currencies. Now, Facebook marketplace, Tiktok shop, YouTube shopping, etc. are essentially doing it already. But they just enable the easy discovery of the products, not completely integrated commerce. This is the same reason I went to see if @dropsocial_app is doing it any better. Escrows and all aren’t anything new. If you brainstorm any idea with any top AI model, it is quick to suggest this escrow based and fully integrated mechanism. But to make it work as fluidly and smoothly is another thing. Perhaps, this is what Pi Network also intended to do within its ecosystem, but the friction still existed. Social in one tab, marketplace in another, and so on. Drops is, so far, making it simple as it needs to be. Creators can open stores, sell physical and digital products, and accept payments in DROPS, USDT or any available choice of currency. Payments are held in escrow until delivery is confirmed, with a dispute mechanism if something goes wrong. There’s also a proposed mechanism to direct a portion of marketplace fees back into the community reward pool. Now again, the interesting part isn’t simply putting a marketplace inside a social app. That has been done. It’s the possibility of connecting social activity, commerce and community incentives within the same economy and without friction. If people are already spending their time building communities, discovering creators and sharing ideas, why shouldn’t they also be able to do business there? The next generation of social platforms won’t just compete for your attention. They’ll compete on what you can actually do with it. This is where I would like to see how Drops makes it an edge or just let it be another feature among the plethora of others. Counter opinions are welcome. 😎

Sometimes, all you need is a break from noise, from narratives and from timelines, get a reset, and let things unfold. And no, don’t ask me about sharing creator revenue screenshots. Instead, I let you keep denying for a little more while. $ICE $ION @ice_blockchain
