How will the platform make money tho?
The Association seeks rent on interactions as provided above. IVEP will deduct a service fee in token when a participant sends tokens :
to a DEV for a paid application;
to a CRE/PUB for paid content;
to SIV for bounties by ADV or PUB, or
as TIPS to DEV, CRE or PUB.
It will also charge a fee to any participants who wish to share the engagement data to another registered participant of the protocol with the consent of the AUD (ex: fees are charged if PUB and ADV agree that the immutable engagement metrics must be accessible to both of them in real time using the protocols state channel, subject to AUDs approval given to PUB).
Such fees are variable and will be set based on the protocols supply and demand parameters. This is an overview and is subject change.
