Own your value.
We believe people are not products.
Our goal is to help empower anybody anywhere to capture and capitalise on micro income streams.
The macro of micro
The big picture for us
We are working to help drive adoption of a better way for peer to peer networks to operate and for digital participants to be rewarded, for their time, energy, attention, communication, content and interaction.
We believe anyone, anywhere in the world, with a smart phone and internet, should be able to access new ways to earn value, to improve their quality of life. That may be tens of thousands of dollars, or just tens of dollars.
Our goal is to make these micro income streams easier to capture and combine, and to transform them into a bigger, more meaningful source of wealth over time. Whatever that looks like for each individual.
And we want to do this on a platform built for decentralised control, steered by a global network of empowered users, so we’re not just aggregators of decentralised finance, we’re an integrated component.
Do a few people deserve more billions, or do billions deserve more?
Let us know what you think, we’d love your input.
So what are micro income streams?
How do I earn them?
In a nutshell, they’re any repeated payment of a small scale (from a few cents to a few dollars), that you earn as a result of online interactions or services. They’re paid in digital (crypto) currency.
Imagine you got paid a small amount of digital currency every time an ad showed up while you were scrolling social media, or looking online for a pair of shoes. Imagine also, that for every like you got on a social media post, you got a small amount of digital currency. Or if you wrote a blog post, or commented on a post. Or when someone likes a post you wrote, or content you shared, they can show appreciation by tipping you a small amount of digital currency.
Or imagine earning micro income streams through gaming, or cloud drive sharing, or just by allowing monitoring access to apps on your devices and sharing your data.
Well, it’s already a reality. And it’s only just getting started.
Some examples of micro income streams
Posting content, social media interactions, likes/views
Viewing ads on web browsers and social media apps
Allowing tracking and data sharing with third parties
Allowing platforms to access your personal data
Games online, rewards for achievement, interactions
Professional network interactions, replies, referrals
Sharing HD storage / CPU power on a cloud network
Digital product user testing, surveys, data mapping
And that’s just a few of the possibilities

Your value.
Network economy evolution is shifting value back to participants.
Peer network giants
Today, over 3.4 Billion users actively contribute to peer to peer network platforms. But less than 0.09% (2-3M) of users receive any income at all.
Platforms hosting these networks have a combined value of over $1 Trillion. In the USA alone in 2019, digital ads on web browsers and social networks earned these platforms $129.34 Billion.
Spot the product?
We’ve been living in an age of surveillance capitalism, with a common business model of letting people use a product for free while collecting data and using it to manipulate users. This is far from an optimal model for network users in the long term.
If you can’t see the product, maybe you’re the product.
Target fatigue
More and more studies are highlighting a growing change in people’s attitudes towards how companies like Facebook and Google monetise users data to target them with ads. We agree it would be a fairer world if the users of networks got rewarded for their participation, since the platforms make billions from peoples interactions.
Privacy as a right
Increasingly there’s been some very public examples of how much privacy we give away to network platforms and how that can be, well, not good. Which is leading to laws giving users back rights to privacy. People will soon be able to choose to sell their data and information, rather than have to give it away just to use a ‘free’ network.
Digital currencies
Digital/crypto currencies provide a way to send value from one person to another instantly, no matter how small, just like sending a text emoji. This opens up a way for users of social networks, web browsers and other online platforms, to send and receive micro payments between one another and also from platform providers. In real time.
Web 3.0 is here
There are many projects in the blockchain world who’ve built new generation digital networks and applications that pay their users micro incomes. And it’s clear the incumbent companies are seeing this evolution happening, and starting to react to it. Which is a good thing for all. We see a bright and fairer future ahead for network participants.
