Earlier, I posted "A roadmap to busting small blocker myths about Bitcoin".

Somewhere in the back of my mind I was thinking: How can I incentivize people to participate in this? If that could be done, a whole lot of myths could be exposed in short order, and less newbies would be confused about Bitcoin (Cash).

I've created a reward token called MYTHBUSTER .

I will hand these out to contributors to the myth busting effort, and whoever receives some is of course free to do with them whatever they want, including

keeping them

passing some on to their friends or relatives

selling them on open markets (e.g. Memo.cash)

burning them (wouldn't recommend it)

These tokens are intended as a reward token, and for dividends issued by anyone feeling generous toward the mythbusting effort (using a tool like https://tools.bitcoin.com/slp-dividend-calculator/ ).

I'm not making promises of big riches here, but dividends can be allotted to the token holders in the form of BCH or other SLP tokens. Such payouts are fully permissionless on BCH, meaning BTCfork or anyone else can reward token holders.

As such, BTCfork can take no responsibility for whatever coins or tokens are distributed to the holders of these tokens. So if someone, someday, sends you some FREAKING FROGS, don't blame us! :-)

Step 1 - you contribute something to the myth-busting effort. It can be anything that's meaningful - an idea, a correction, a researched factoid, a diagram, links to resources, an entire article. Whatever helps bust a myth that's on the list.

Step 2 - you notify @btcfork via a roadmap post comment or any other comment I'm likely to see on this platform.

Step 3 - you provide an SLP receiving address

Step 4 - if I find your contribution valuable, you receive MYTHBUSTER tokens from btcfork. Anyone else can of course also give you some, once you have published an SLP address for receiving them

Step 5 - you may receive other tokens or BCH to your address at random times when someone does a dividend payout.

Get a Bitcoin Cash wallet that supports SLP (SimpleLedger Protocol) tokens.

I recommend either the Badger Wallet, Crescent Cash wallet or Electron Cash SLP edition. If you know of any other good ones, let me know in the comments, and you can earn your first reward!

That remains at the discretion of whoever is handing them out, but I suggest a kind of logarithmic scale for contributions:

100 tokens: for a major piece of work (e.g. a full article of your own which busts a myth on the roadmap, or some other piece of work which required major effort, like a complex illustration or diagram provably of your own doing and contributed freely with a license that allows sharing)

10 tokens: for an important link to relevant researched information, such as articles written by others on a myth we want to bust

1 token: for minor contributions like good feedback that helps improve existing content, e.g. spelling or grammar corrections, pointing out logical errors

The scale is sliding, and amounts in between these points may be chosen according to own judgment of the value of a contribution.

That's all for now - see on the mythbusting trail! :)
