Things to know about Gath3r
On first instance the name Gath3r looks like a chaacter from a popular superhero
comic book series...
but it is not instead it is a blockchain based project that can help
- The Audiances by paying them in crypto to stay on longer onto a website or an
app - Publishers, bloggers, site owners and content creators in helping them
monetize their sites and content - It would enhance the overall experience of a website and at the same time it
would help in securing other blockchain projects.
What is the Gath3r offering ?
1 In browser mining: This is one of the biggest tools that can encourage a
user to stay longer on to your site.
Let us say Joe has an website and to make money he has put a lot of ads on his
website. Most of these ads require a user to click on a banner or link and
complete an action for him to earn some revenue from his site.
A common drawback with this kind of advertising is that such action takes his
audiences away from his website.
Moreover such advertising is intrusive and can distract the audience away from
the main content of the website.
Gath3r ~ Browser Mining solution : Joe comes across a web browser mining
solution from Gath3r.io here all he needs to do is embed a few lines of code into
the coding of his website. As a result everytime a visitor comes to his website the
browser starts mining Gath tokens a crypto native to the Gath3r.io project.
This process makes money both for the audiance as well as the site owner/
content owner.
In browser mining can integrate well into the traditional modes of advertising o
can do away with ads on the website.
Merged mining.
Crypto currencies that have similar algorithms can be mined at the same time
giving more revenue.
A big benefit of merged mining is for the new and upcoming low budget
blockchain projects who need a network to help run their operations and protect
them from a 51% attack.
The web browser mining user base can provide the resources to mine this new
asset. Thus earning a reward and helping an upcoming project become
sustainable within budget.
In Conclusion
Gath3r is a tool that can be very effective for both the publishers and the
audiences. The publisher can set the percentage of crypto that would go to the
audience.
This can be a great solution to help communities and charities earn for a good
cause.
Watch out for the Gath3r IEO
The Gath3r IEO is scheduled for the second half of July. The details can be found
here http://blog.gath3r.io/
As the Gath3r.io project would support other blockchain based projects so would be interesting to see how it contributes to the expanding crypto space.
It is an interesting concept from the consumers point of view and it remains to be seen how many people start using the browser based crypto mining opportunity. Once the numbers pick up the project may see good amount of traction.
