My name is Bruno and I'm the protocol designer and lead developer for Oyster. Oyster is a true 'two-birds-one-stone' project thats solves easy-access anonymous storage and traffic revenue generation. The Oyster protocol creates a set of network based economic circumstances which causes monetary value to flow from the pockets of those who want to spend on anonymous storage into the pockets of those who want to monetize their web content.

Adverts are distracting and invasive. They take up precious pixel space, often break the content and design continuity of websites, and are rarely politically neutral. Adverts must always be manually interpreted and approved for ethics compliance, therefore the system can never be fully decentralized. A famous example of a website that understands the inherent flaws in banner advertising is Wikipedia.

To illustrate the unseen economic potential of Oyster, imagine the potential revenue generation of Wikipedia. If Wikipedia enabled Oyster it would be able to pay for server costs without having to solicit their users for donations every year (which breaks design/space aesthetics like adverts and financially burdens the users themselves).

Payments to website owners are completely automated and decentralized, therefore no economic leverage is held against them.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
