Social media is on the main stream since the advent of the world wide web. And almost everybody who have access to internet have one or multiple social media account and it is often been said that social media ranks the highest number of internet users and people spend more time on the social media either posting pictures, creating new article, re-posting new article, commenting on people's post and liking/up voting post.
Social media despite it's widely adoption and use has only benefited the social media platform that develop the site and have not benefited the user who spend a good number of hours using the sites rather the social media platform uses their users data to even amass a huge amount of wealth without tipping the platform users, they force the users to see advertisement they are not interested in and most times the platform even charges the users to use some features on their platform.
But how about having a social media where you can make an income doing what you love; posting, commenting,liking /up-voting post. A social media where you can make an income posting on your wall? A social media where every comment, likes, up votes will represent an income for you?. A social media where your content represents an income for you? A social media you will love?..
Well meet Tipper a blockchain based project set to revolutionized the social media and give it back to the people. Let's find out how Tipper is intend to achieve this.
What is Tipper
Tipper is a blockchain platform set revolutionized two-way peer-to-peer support platform that will incentives every user to monetize as part of a new social media experience
Tipper has created a blockchain protocols to be able to achieve this, the blockchain protocol will enable true micropayment and open door to massive scalability, creating the world's first true blockchain currency of commerce.
Tipper Blockchain protocol will feature the follows
- 250,000+ micro-transcations/s(For YouTube-scale video(data) decentralization)

The platform will feature four main pillars of the social economy which includes
- PILLAR 1 : TIPPING MODEL
The users earns tips for for posting on the platform through likes, comments, views, up-votes. whenever a user post a content on the platform the followers can support him through their likes, comments, votes, views, all these amount to income giving the platform user the ability to earn while spending their time on the social media
- PILLAR 2 : CONTENT INVESTING
The platform allows good content creators to create contents and open it up for other platform user to invest in the content. This gives greater value to both the content creators and the investors. Let's say Mr A created a content and Mr B invested in the content and Mr C and Mr D likes or vote on the content there by giving tips then Mr A will receive 90% of the tips income while 10% goes to Mr B.
- PILLAR 3 MOMENTIZATION
The platform allows creators to create exciting, memorable and unforgettable moments and monetize them by allowing users to tip these moments. These moments will be utilized to raise funds and will give rise to new era of crowd funding that serves the people.
- PILLAR 4 : TIPPER AD MODEL
Brands spend billions of dollars advertising their product on social media and Tipper want to revolutionize the industry making the 100% of all ad revenue go back to users. This is made possible by the low cost of Tipper's decentralized network.
Brands can buy ad space (eye traffic) and also get their money converted to Branded Tips (smart tips with a message) which they tip directly to the users they want to reach.
Why Invest In Tipper
I will base my investment choice on three major aspect of any blockchain project which includes the product, the road map and the team
The Product
Tipper is no longer an idea on white paper as they have a working product and have developed their blockchain as far back as 2017 with the main platform set to be lunched by Q3 2018.
The Road Map
Tipper road map showed they started the idea of the project since 2015 though their road map didn't highlight technical details or break down of what have been achieved but the road map due highlight their completion of bloackchain development back in 2017 and the final phase on Feb 2018. The next on the road map is the token sale event which is schedule on the month of March 2018 and it is currently live as the time of writing this article.
The Team.
Tipper have quite a large number of team members and they are well grand in IT industry and are capable of delivering on the project both now and in the future with Roomi Sahi their Co-founder & CTO been Patented Android OS Hacker and Blockchain Architect. Tipper also have advisors who have excel in their various field of endeavors with most of them holding PhD in their various field.
Conclusion (My Personal Evaluation)
Social media ranks as one of the top use case for internet and brands have spend billions of dollars advertising on the current social media platform like Facebook, Twitter etc but most of the advert does not get to the targeted audience or users normally opt out of such advert whenever they pop out.
With platform like Tipper social media users will spend more time knowing fully well that they will earn for the time spent on Tipper platform and this will attract more users and brands into the system and also grow the demand for the project and return huge investment for the investors. This token is a long term HODL for me and I am rating this project high in my standard of evaluating ICO projects
Tipper have scheduled their ICO for the sale of their TIPR token you can participate and join in the upcoming token sale
