Reward Pool Structure

ViewFT’s reward pool is funded by platform revenue and distributed to participants who contribute value to the ecosystem.

​
Pool Split

RecipientShareWho
Creators60%Content publishers, proportional to engagement × ViewCred × stake
Viewers/Curators30%Readers, sharers, flaggers, and moderators
Protocol Treasury10%Platform development, operations, and reserves

​
Revenue Sources

The reward pool is funded by:
  • Advertising revenue — native ads clearly labeled, not injected into content feed
  • Premium subscriptions — ad-free experience, advanced analytics for creators
  • Enterprise partnerships — news organizations licensing ViewFT’s verification system
  • Staking penalties — forfeited stakes from slashed content

​
Distribution Mechanics

Rewards are distributed on a rolling basis:
  • Daily: View Points credited to accounts based on previous day’s activity
  • Weekly: Leaderboard updated, streak bonuses applied
  • Quarterly: Revenue share calculations finalized

​
Transparency

All reward pool data is publicly viewable:
  • Total pool size
  • Distribution by category
  • Top earners (anonymized by default, opt-in to public)
  • Historical trends

​
How the Pool Grows

The reward pool is not fixed — it grows as the platform generates more revenue: Phase I (pre-revenue): The founding team seeds an initial pool of View Points to bootstrap participation. Points earned during this phase convert to $VIEW tokens at TGE. Phase II (early revenue): As advertising and premium subscription revenue begins flowing, the reward pool grows proportionally. Early participants benefit from a smaller pool with less competition. Phase III (mature): At scale, the reward pool is sustained entirely by platform revenue. No inflationary token minting is used to fund rewards — all rewards come from real revenue.

Example Reward Calculation

Scenario: Creator with Trusted Voice ViewCred (500) publishes a staked article that receives strong engagement.
  • Base engagement points: 50 (from views, shares, saves)
  • ViewCred multiplier: 2.0x (Trusted Voice tier)
  • Stake multiplier: 1.5x (moderate stake)
  • Total reward: 50 × 2.0 × 1.5 = 150 View Points
Compare to a New creator (ViewCred 50) publishing unstaked content with the same engagement:
  • Base: 50 × 1.0x (New tier) × 1.0x (no stake) = 50 View Points
The Trusted Voice creator earns 3x more for the same engagement — that’s the compounding value of building ViewCred over time.
