| 'FarmerCoin', as you describe it, sounds utterly pointless. What farmercoin measures: 1) A farmer takes a picture of good produce (whether or not they sell said produce) 2) Verifiers / customers claim the produce looks good from only video evidence (did you know that you pinch the ends of cucumbers to check it? You knock on watermelons to judge their quality?). 3) The farmer gets a coin that is somehow more useful for trading than USD and the verifier gets discounts What you want to measure: "Does the Farmer sell good produce"? The market forces already gravitate towards the solving this problem. If I go to a farmer's market and one seller consistently gives me amazing tomatos and a second consistently gives me one rotten one per bunch, you can bet I'll "vote with my wallet" so to speak. Similarly, the farmer who sells better produce will be rewarded by people choosing his produce. There's no need to try and force "Yet Another Crypto Crap" into something where it's not solving any problem. As an added bonus, farmers are possibly one of the worst markets I could imagine to try and impose some meaningless techno mumbo-jumbo on. Many a farmer still refuses to use credit cards, preferring only cash, because cards are too complicated. Today, we already have online reviews which people give out and consume for free on many sites, and that MUCH better fits this problem then some crazy akt-coin meant to proxy reviews. |
