Project launches curation ecosystem on Avalanche

The CurateDAO, a socially curated database that allows curators to assemble sets of data on which Web3 applications are built, announced the introduction of a database platform resembling the Pinterest on the Avalanche (AVAX) blockchain.

Users may receive crypto tokens as payment for completing tasks, as in traditional 'to earn' business models. Participants' duty, in this situation, is to add their carefully vetted lists to the project's database. There are specific jobs within the project sphere, including curators who create databases and establish their rules, scouts who identify and add content that complies with the database standards, and viewers who engage with the content by looking at it.

The curator in this ecosystem can be a person, a decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO), or an artificial intelligence (AI) software like GPT-3. Curators will have the opportunity to profit alongside the scouts as viewers pay for the content or access it by viewing displayed advertisements.

The Founder of CurateDAO, Michael Fischer, believes the initiative will be valuable in gathering user-generated material in a method that is recognisable to Web2 application users. The CuratorDAO team thinks that encouraging curation will result in the collection of high-quality data.

After the popularity of move-to-earn (M2E) and play-to-earn (P2E) gaming spread in 2021 because of STEPN (GMT) and Axie Infinity (AXS), another iteration of the 'to earn' concept debuts to integrate Web3 components into current Web2 frameworks.
