Best and worst part of Urbit is the isolation.

ok, made our way onto farcaster and are seeing this now so we can chime in here about the way you earn. 

as a star using %fund, you have elevated privileges to serve as a ‘trusted oracle’. urbit planets come to you with service requests to take on task of judging the completion of the terms of a given crowdfund, and in exchange you get a cut of the milestone payouts. how big your cut is, though, is negotiated with your project worker in advance. 

perhaps you bring a lot of clout or credibility to a project, or can charge a high premium on your fairness as a judge. maybe you have a formal dispute resolution system and often side with funding contributors to refund contributions made to campaigns ‘completed’ in bad faith…

we just released v1.0 of %fund. sovereign crowdfunding using urbit for self-hosted front ends, off-chain comms, and (coming soon) a p2p subjective reputation graph. 

if you aren't on urbit yet, you can onboard with just an email at tocwexsyndicate.com, or if you already have an urbit planet, just run `|install ~tocwex %fund` in the dojo to install today.

and if you have an urbit star and are curious how you can monetize your digital clout, you can do that too: https://warpcast.com/tocwex/0x725ca8cc
