How Bulb Makes It Easy to Tip Your Favorite Web3 Writers


Have you wondered what the internet would look like if tipping was native?
If you could tip your favorite tweet?
Send a reward for that YouTube tutorial that was very helpful?
Drop a little token on a blog post that helped you land your first job?
If that version of the internet existed, creativity will flourish, as there is an active incentive for originality. Creators will no longer have to chase ad deals or viral trends to stay afloat.
Bulb is already building toward that kind of internet!

Creators have powered the internet for years, they are the reason users stay engaged and yet, they are rarely compensated fairly for the work they do.
Web2 platforms like Instagram, Medium, or YouTube monetize attention, but creators get only a fraction of the value they help generate. Without their words, videos, or art, these platforms wouldn’t exist, would they?
Even with massive engagement, the payouts are small, inconsistent, and algorithm-dependent. Creators can go viral and still earn next to nothing. Sure, there have been some attempt at fixing this like ā€œBuy Me a Coffeeā€ links, these rely on the goodwill of users, they are not built into the infrastructure of the platform.

It is a different kind of creator-community relationship with web3 platforms like @BULB Official. The communities that form around content can now support, sustain, and even grow with the creators they believe in. Think about a time you read a finely written article that stopped you mid-scroll. You shared it, sure. Maybe you even bookmarked it. But what if you could instantly reward the writer and encourage them to do more? This is possible with the tipping feature on BULB.Imagine if these 68 people who were wowwed at @Miguel's post decided to tip him 1Sol each. Ah! that thought felt good for a moment no? Now, let me explain how you can send a tip to your favorite creators on BULB.

1.At the end of every blog post on, you'll find the tip button.2.Click it and choose your wallet
3. Click it, choose the crypto you want to send (BULB token, Solana or USDC)
4.Select the number of tokens you want to tip.
5.You can then proceed to check out. If you are using a PC, you will have to scan the QR code that pops up on your screen to validate the transaction
And just like that, your favorite creator has been appreciated for being awesome!
Tipping on Bulb is not just a reward system, it is a way a way of saying "This is worth reading" or "You should do more of thisā€.
Start tipping today! Reward creators who challenge, inform, and inspire you. The future of the internet is one where value flows back to the people who create it.

PS: Send me a tip if you found this useful.šŸ˜‰
