To score Bitcoin points like Digital Airline Miles – Bitcoin Magazine

This is an opinion editor of Michael Rheethe founder of Wavlake and a contributor to Bitcoin Magazine.

Everyone loves to keep points. From likes and reviews on social media to airline smiles and Starbucks Rewards, points tell us exactly where we stand in the commercial world. On social media platforms, they can mean more eyes and a sense of validation. In a world of airlines and coffee shops, they can mean more free rides and frappuccinos.

Today, each of these scores lives in a fenced garden. As a gift card to your favorite store, these points can only be redeemed in one place and are locked within a limited context. I can not convert likes on my tweets to free coffee. Nor can I turn the views on my YouTube videos into discounted hotel stays.
