we absolutely need to build better systems to reward creators for the VALUE they create problem is that we're still mostly building systems to monetize the ATTENTION that content gets (and not its value) any distribution graph of creator earnings on FC & TBA will tell you this — the rewards go for attention, not for content value and the crazy part is that actually rewarding creators for value would be massively profitable for the platform that does it because it would attract all the quality creators — it's something web2 simply can't compete with so this can be done it can be done profitably and it can ONLY be done on an open social graph network (you simply can't credibly surface value in a closed platform) so what's holding us back from building this?

how do you propose measuring the value they create? Especially in a way that separates it from the attention that it attracts

in a somewhat similar way to how Ponder "measures" what people think *others* would vote for. except you replace the question with: "how much do you think the network would value this?" then you add Randomized Voter Sampling (https://paragraph.com/@abundance/randomized-voter-sampling) to make this work at scale & hard to game then you feed those signals to a LLM so it can surface more casts like that is this the perfect solution? I don't know. but it's a step in the right direction
