Hi! My name is Jordhy and I’m building Bitfari. This is a thread to introduce members of the community to the project and have their initial questions answered. There’s another lively thread at Bitcointalk (Peer-to-Peer Advertising, and Social Network Powered by Bitcoin + Stacks) if you are also a member of that community. What follows is a simple description of the tech + important links so you can dig in and get more info. I want to stress that this project started development three months ago and will be releasing a lot of stuff at a break-neck pace until Feb 2022 (so a lot of things might change in that timespan).
==== ORIGINAL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM BITCOINTALK ================
Bitfari is a Peer-to-Peer Ad Network (https://www.bitfari.org/) where users can buy ad space at a dynamic price that is adjusted to foot traffic and the historic performance of billboards/screens as recorded by the blockchain. This will allow advertisers to bypass agencies, newspapers, and other middlemen to gain ad space that’s about 90% cheaper in most cases. The system can handle any HTML ad and any type of digital screen. I am also working on launching a variant of this system for online ads (something similar to Adwords).
Furthermore, companies can nominate any Bitcoin account as a marketing treasury and, when the balance of the account changes (either up or down) by a certain threshold, the system can start a campaign in the area of interest. Since users of the platform will be anonymous, there is greater privacy and since advertising costs are lower, discounts and promos could be greater.
