It is no longer a secret that with the exponential increase in the number of smartphones around the world, the amount of digital photos that are taken per day are increasing at an unfathomable rate. Statistically speaking, in 2017 there were more than 1.2 trillion photos that were taken. This was 600 million more than 2013, and it is predicted by 2020, the number of captured images will surge beyond the 2 trillion mark. All of this has happened due to the simple reason that camera phones have become more and more affordable with each passing year. Today, billions of people carry smartphones, and are able to publish photos on the internet instantly (due to falling data chargers).

What Is Selfllery?

Selfllery is an all new social platform that allows for the monetization of “Visual Content” in a streamlined manner. In addition to this, it also serves as an interaction service that allows users to ”receive rewards and incentives” in the form of cryptocurrencies. Bonuses can be availed of for a variety of reasons including specialized publications, distribution of visual content. The Selfllery reward system makes use of native tokens that are ERC20 compliant and are based within the Ethereum blockchain technology.

Some of the key uses of this platform include:
