my thesis: tipping and social engagement tokens would reward creators. 

the reality: tipping and social engagement tokens are consistently and ruthlessly gamed by noise generating farmers who don’t give a fuck about the creator economy. 

and their bullshit drowns out the creators.

I understand your frustration with the time-consuming nature of token-based rewards and the potential for pump-and-dump schemes. It's true that many creators face with this!

Yes I'm grateful for any donation via tokens, but for myself i gave up, its too much time consuming and not rewarding for me ( quite the opposite ) and most indeed look like pump and dump. Also most of the time it doesn't make sense for example the Degen token was given was about 1.000.000 a day that's not sustainable.
