@knowledges Cheers for the response and very thorough review. It might not have been quite obvious from the post content given this is a new project, but work has started on this already.
It's actually an idea that started out for Bitcoin and Litecoin before realising that Steem would be a better fit with its lack of fees and quick block times.
Specifics definitely need to be nutted out on a granular level, but the gift card marketplace has been started and on GitHub. A lot of the other components need to be built up, but things are very much happening.
I've posted a couple of updates since this announcement post on progress, including a project and development update on progress and technical specifics. Understandably, this is more of a high level post than a technical one though, I can see why it appears as very much an idea that hasn't been realised or started to be realised yet.
I am always grateful for feedback and I was wondering if you had some tips and advice for making things more enjoyable to read? I noticed it was one of the review criteria, but admittedly, wasn't sure what constitutes enjoyable (especially if you're talking about boring technical stuff).
The ideas hub sounds interesting and I would very much love to drop by and talk about it :) thanks for letting me know, I didn't actually know such an initiative existed.
Thanks again and I love your work.
