Token Mechanics: Driving User Behavior in the AR Ecosystem
The Power of Cryptocurrency Incentives
Cryptocurrency has proven to be a powerful catalyst for shaping new user behaviors:
- Bitcoin pioneered hardware mining
- Subsequent projects successfully encouraged:
- Staking
- Liquidity provision
- Sharing of computing resources
- Physical exercise
- Gamification
These initiatives demonstrate the effectiveness of token-based incentives in driving user engagement and adoption of novel technologies.
Auggle's Innovative Approach
Auggle harnesses the motivational power of cryptocurrency to revolutionize the creation and exploration of virtual objects derived from the real world.
Scan to Earn
Our primary mechanism, Scan to Earn, rewards users with Auggle tokens for contributing to our virtual ecosystem through photogrammetry:
- Users scan real-world objects
- High-quality scans are converted into 3D models
- Contributors receive Auggle tokens based on the value and quality of their submissions
Future Evolution: View to Earn
As our platform matures, we plan to introduce View to Earn:
- Users will be incentivized to explore and interact with AR objects
- This mechanism aims to drive engagement and create a vibrant, interactive AR community
Long-Term Sustainability
We envision a self-sustaining ecosystem that transcends initial token incentives:
- Bootstrapping Phase: Early adopters are crucial in populating the system with diverse, high-quality content.
- Maturation: As the platform grows, users will increasingly recognize and value the non-crypto benefits of the AR ecosystem.
- Self-Sustainability: The intrinsic value of the AR experience will become the primary driver of engagement.
- Value Appreciation: Early contributors will benefit from their foresight through:
- Increased token value
- Governance voting rights, allowing them to shape the future of the platform
By aligning user incentives with ecosystem growth, Auggle aims to create a thriving, user-driven AR world that offers both immediate rewards and long-term value.
