The main function of Creator staking, inspired by the dApp staking model from @AstarNetwork, is to incentivize content creators — key contributors to the network. Additionally, there is the goal of growing the network and improving curation.

I am a @SubsocialChain power-user, I was an ambassador for a period and decided to take a step back and remain only a contributor.

Top 10 content creators selected over the launch of Creators Staking

The community will choose to support the content creator who is most pleasing for personal reasons, for being more active, for contributing more to the community, for affinity, and so on. The main actors of the Polkaverse platform (Subsocial) are the stars!

How to stake?

$SUB holders can stake on their favorite content creators, providing incentives for the key players in the ecosystem to keep producing and delivering quality content.

Benefits

Preventing the treasuries of Polkadot and Kusama from being drained by content creator proposals — a source of much discussion and even ecosystem abandonment by some users. CREATOR STAKING SOLVES IT!!!

Who can participate?

There will be a pre-selected list of 10 creators to stake towards. If you are a creator who would like to register, fill out this form. Creator registration will likely become permissionless or take place through on-chain governance, although we are waiting to see how the system performs.

Utility of the $SUB token:

The main utility is burning to create “energy” — enabling actions on the network.

Energy Token

Energy allows the usage of the Subsocial network without tokens. Users burn SUB tokens to acquire energy, thereby converting tokens into energy. This creates deflationary pressure on the token and also facilitates the onboarding of new users to Subsocial much more easily.
