Sign up for our newsletter at https://Evolvement.io. Evolvement is a podcast hosted by Nye that revolves around Bitcoin, cryptocurrency, blockchain technology, and how these play a role in the current financial models and economic systems of the world. Vid is an upcoming privacy focused social media app which allows users to be paid for content. The app pools metadata from users during the day to generate a custom 3-minute video based on daily activities. Uber rides, food photos, exercise routines, etc. are cut together and put to music for a quick recording that can be uploaded to social media sites. These videos can be made public and monetized by companies who pay users directly. These advertisers will first need to buy the VID tokens before they can be sent as payment.
