Interested in learning more about our platform? What else can I do besides upload photos of my birthday?​ Let’s get into it.

What does an artist use to create their masterpieces?

Some might wield the power of iron to create beautiful sculptures. Others snap beautiful photos of the sun setting over the beach while a woman in white prances with a horse. Another artist might throw paint at the wall as a testament to the anger of society underpinned through our struggles through the class system inherit in being human (no clue what that means).

No matter what medium you use for your PIBBLE contents, you can be rewarded with PIBBLE Brush (of the green and red variety).

Let’s pretend there are only 2 colors: green and red.

PIB coin? PIB Green brush? PIB red brush? PIB yellow brush?

There is no yellow brush, but PIB green and red brush are real and a vital part of how the ecosystem will work on our platform.

You already know that we have PIBBLE coin, our premier cryptocurrency, but on our platform there are other ways to be rewarded for your engagement and activity.

If you look at many blockchain service projects, a common theme is rewarding participation with coins. This can expand their ecosystem but it also occasionally encourages inappropriate behavior. People want to get coins so they spam or abuse the reward mechanics to maximize the amount of coins they can recieve.

I am ok with this kind of spam.

It’s not easy to encourage participation and reward honest users while preventing abuse and negatively impacting the ecosystem.

​We thought long and hard about what is the best way to maintain the sanctity of our ecosystem. With PIBBLE brush, we have a solution to this very problem. PIBBLE brush are only able to be used on our platform but have various functionality that provide our users with value.

PIBBLE Green Brush (PGB)

You are out on the streets of Ho Chi Minh City in the sweltering heat. The smell of bread, meat, and spices wafts up into your nose and you are immediately drawn to the Banh Mi. Before you attack into your sandwich, you snap a picture and upload it to PIBBLE.

Can’t you taste it just from the photo?

You just earned yourself some PIBBLE Green Brush.

But, what can I actually do with my PGB?

Think of PIBBLE green brush as a kind of mileage and thanks for participating on our platform. Green Brush cannot be used for your own benefit however. It is used to encourage your further participation on the platform and reward others for their content.

In this way, we encourage our users to upload photos but prevent the case where a user uploads 1000s of photos that nobody is interested in just to get rewards. Which brings us to how you can actually be rewarded on our platform.

PIBBLE Red Brush (PRB)

So now you have some PIBBLE Green brush in your account from your delicious banh mi photo. While scrolling through your feed, you see a friend’s photo of their backpacking trip through Ecuador. It looks great and, even though you are jealous of their adventure, you want to reward them. So, you hit the upvote button on their photo.

My 1000 PIBBLE Green Brush is gone!

Well, not exactly, your 1000 PGB was removed from your account and your friend was rewarded with 1000 PIBBLE Red Brush!

PGB to PRB is EZ.

You can think of PIBBLE Red Brush as the base currency of participation on our platform. It is the heart of the ecosystem on PIBBLE. It can be exchanged for PIB coins, can be used for shopping, and can do a wide range of other activities on our platform.

Think of the elementary school phrase: Sharing is Caring.

PIBBLE Green Brush cannot be exchanged for rewards. It is for you to reward our other creators for their amazing contents. Then, they will be motivated to upload more and more beautiful contents for you to enjoy.

Instead of a social media where the platform is run purely on advertising, PIBBLE is run through motivating each other.

What is next? An explanation about our User Power Levels and a detailed explanation about what exact activities you can do on the platform.

Don’t stop now, how about continuing on to part 5?
