In this model, the user gets rewarded with unique tokens which can be later redeemed for either fiat currency or for buying any goods from selected brand partners. Users who have valuable information can submit their work on the platform.

Once their work is approved and verified, users get tokens into their connected wallets. The user wallet can be native to the platform or it can be native to the blockchain on which the product is built on.
