How It Works

ViewFT operates as a two-sided platform connecting creators (writers, journalists, curators) with viewers (readers, sharers, moderators).

For Creators

  1. Publish — Write original content or curate news from verified sources
  2. Build ViewCred — Your ViewCred Score grows as your content proves accurate and valuable over time
  3. Optionally Stake — Put $VIEW tokens behind your content to signal confidence and earn higher rewards
  4. Earn Rewards — Receive View Points based on engagement, ViewCred level, and stake amount

For Viewers

  1. Read & Discover — AI-curated news feed prioritizes content from high-ViewCred creators
  2. Curate & Share — Earn View Points for sharing quality content and referring new users
  3. Moderate — Flag misleading content; earn bonus rewards when flags are confirmed by the verification system
  4. Participate — Vote on disputed content and governance proposals

The Algorithm

ViewFT’s recommendation algorithm weighs three signals when ranking content:
  • ViewCred Score of the creator — higher credibility = wider distribution
  • Stake Amount — staked content gets an algorithmic boost (but staking alone doesn’t guarantee visibility)
  • Engagement Quality — meaningful interactions (saves, shares, thoughtful comments) matter more than clicks

Content Lifecycle

Creator publishes → AI indexes and categorizes →
Algorithm distributes based on ViewCred + Stake →
Viewers engage → If flagged → Three-Layer Verification →
Outcome: Rewarded (accurate) or Slashed (misleading)
