sounds similar to brave attention tokens (BAT) I guess you'd be better off with dedicated coin (blockchain) to avoid transaction fees for every question, answer, but you could still gain tokens & transfer between chains.

but to be honest I'd rather see git with crypto than a forum with crypto. get rewarded for your code. maybe only for running API versions of it.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Link please. Blockchain was defined as a datastructure for money in the bitcoin whitespace by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008. New definition reference?

Can you quote this definition please? To read and write to the blockchain, you need a decentralized network to support it, it is nothing as a static datastructure. To reduce blockchain to "a datastructure for money" doesn't cover how it works.

"We define an electronic coin as a chain of digital signatures. Each owner transfers the coin to the next by digitally signing a hash of the previous transaction and the public key of the next owner and adding these to the end of the coin. A payee can verify the signatures to verify the chain of ownership."
