Big believer in this part: "The holy grail will be when users consume content not knowing wtf is happening in the back." e.g., We've been wondering if we could pull off a purchase flow for coins without showing any numbers. A lot of the numbers just serve as an index: How much support do I want to give? How popular is this post or writer, or how relevant is it to my interests? There may be ways to answer these without showing precise numbers. This type of flow may not work well for speculators, but hopefully it would be great for people who care about the writer or writing (which yes, maybe is a smaller market now, but IMO could be a much larger market opportunity than pure speculators / bots).

That’s an interesting concept, I think especially there is a psychological factor from the marketing side where a pretty high percentage of people (gen pop) check out the second there’s a decimal with more than two numbers behind it. Honestly anything that isn’t dollars/pennies immediately carries subconscious weight bc it means doing more complex math. It would be interesting to see a token take on utility but abstract away price concerns so that #of tokens matters more than price to the end user.

maybe show # of tokens as “points”. No need to show $ or ETH amounts. Just plain quantity to show “score”. Ie 15m collected by 1000 collectors or 100m collected by 100 collectors etc
