記錄兩篇文章變成一篇文章的第一週： 1）從週二出刊完文章之後，心情就變得蠻輕鬆的。腦中也開始想嘗試很多以前覺得太忙不敢想的事，但也都跟工作有關 2）週四正好遇到比特幣ETF通過，以前看到這種事情會覺得我下週再寫就好現在沒力氣。但今天覺得精力充沛，所以就速速地寫了一篇貼文新節奏的新開始
每週我都至少會打兩場羽球，分別是週四、週六週四是我每週氣力放盡，只能躺在床上當廢人的第一天。既然無法寫更多東西，就安排在這天錄音和打球，用聊天和運動來平衡生活。週六則是收假的感覺。我的上班日是週日開始，連打 3 個小時的球就沒有力氣收假憂鬱。但有時候自己還會在週四排一些演講，像今天早上起床就開始趕製投影片、下午演講，晚上接著回台北打球。現在只能躺在懶骨頭上當呼吸肉塊 🥩
The protagonist of this article, Quadratic Lenster, is a brand new social platform that just made its debut in Paris. It magnifies small donations on social platforms through quadratic funding. Yesterday, I made a donation to a friend. By donating just 1 dollar, he is projected to receive an additional 8 dollars from the matching fund. **Magnifying Donations** Quadratic Lenster is a new social experiment initiated by Gitcoin founder Kevin Owocki, aiming to integrate quadratic funding with the social platforms people use every day to create a unique social ecosystem. He once pointed out that likes or hearts on social platforms are worthless and are supplied infinitely, making them authentic "shitcoins". Even if people receive a lot of likes, or hearts, they still feel empty. In contrast, receiving small rewards is much more tangible. Readers from Hong Kong and Taiwan must be very familiar with this concept, as LikeCoin aims to transform likes into rewards. Instead of giving data to the platform with a like, it's better to reward the creators with LikeCoin. The small reward mechanism can be considered the core function of Quadratic Lenster. The difference is that it not only allows people to give small rewards to posts, but also sets up a separate matching fund. People jointly decide who should receive these funds through quadratic funding. For this event, Kevin Owocki put up 10,000 dollars as the matching fund, attracting people to share high-quality content regarding #ethcc, the Ethereum community conference. The post that received the most fund matching so far received 100 rewards, totaling approximately 306 WMATIC. These 100 rewards came from 16 users, who are expected to receive 4,590 WMATIC from the fund pool, equivalent to about 3,400 dollars, or 100,000 Taiwan dollars. The fact that a community post can receive 100,000 Taiwan dollars is too tempting! So, I also posted on Quadratic Lenster to test the small reward mechanism. This post has received 5 rewards so far, totaling 4.1 WMATIC. These 5 rewards came from 2 users. Based on these data, this post is expected to receive 21.96 WMATIC of fund matching from the fund pool, or about 500 Taiwan dollars. But I must admit, one of the donors is me, and the other is a member of the blockchain force, ctting.eth, who I invited to test this new feature. I also asked him to post an article. If you want to test small donations, you are more than welcome to use our articles as an experiment 😂 Readers who participated in the last round of Gitcoin Grants small donations will definitely be familiar with quadratic funding. In the past, people's targets for small donations in Gitcoin Grants were one project after another, but on Quadratic Lenster, the targets for small rewards are posts. It's easier to judge whether a post is worth rewarding than a project, and it's more familiar to people, after all, every like seems like a shitcoin reward! In addition, most people spend the most time either on social platforms or video platforms every day. Integrating quadratic funding directly into people's daily lives is equivalent to lowering the threshold for participation, and it's less likely to have the strange phenomenon of "money is more important than people", which happened last time when the participation in Gitcoin Grants was too low. **Quality Over Quantity** To put it bluntly, Quadratic Lenster hopes to change people's social behaviors through economic incentives, by using quadratic funding. Currently, media must use sensational headlines to grab attention and generate traffic in order to sell ads. But sensational content would be less popular on Quadratic Lenster. People who feel cheated after reading won't tip at all. On the contrary, creators who accumulate a certain reputation through their work will receive small tips. They can then obtain generous rewards through the matching funds. This economic incentive also filters out content farms that deliberately mislead for traffic. Ultimately, Quadratic Lenster has the chance to nurture a different content ecosystem that values "quality over quantity." However, we can also see there are many flaws in Quadratic Lenster's mechanisms. For example, the post that receives the most matching funds may not have the highest quality content, but just the creator with the widest network. After all, quadratic funding values having more people over having more money. If everyone politely chips in small tips, or colludes to upvote each other, it is easy for certain projects to see their matching funds shoot upwards. Scholars are already actively researching ways to resist collusion. One approach is to distinguish between social relationships, as donations from strangers may be more credible than from friends, since they have less conflicts of interest. But in order to differentiate the closeness of social relationships, there must first be a reliable identity system. This loops back to the sybil attack issue discussed previously. Aside from identity, determining good and bad content is also not easy. In the past, people would just ignore or block content they didn't like. But if it's a post that can receive matching funds, some suggest adding balancing mechanisms, a bit like social platforms allowing downvotes in addition to upvotes. People who downvote would also have to pay a cost to offset the upvotes. A platform with only upvotes is like a car with just the gas pedal. Platforms should not encourage people to "race" and go as fast as possible. Braking mechanisms must be added to make the social atmosphere healthier. Of course, opponents would question whether encouraging people to pay to downvote others is really that healthy. Quadratic Lenster is a social experiment, with many mechanisms and assumptions still to be tested. It's possible the $10,000 matching funds that Kevin Owocki put up will end up being thrown into the water. But that money would not have been wasted. Rather, it experiments with a whole new set of economic incentives for social platforms, the cutting edge intersection of quadratic funding and community platforms.

這篇文章的主角 [Quadratic Lenster](https://www.quadraticlenster.xyz/) 就是這次在巴黎[剛剛亮相](https://www.youtube.com/live/-zT9l63LkEU?feature=share)的全新社交平台。它透過平方募資法，放大人們在社交平台上面的小額捐款。昨天我就嘗試捐款給一位朋友。只捐了 1 美元，他就（預計）能從配對基金拿到額外 8 美元的獎勵。 **放大捐款** Quadratic Lenster 是 Gitcoin 創辦人 Kevin Owocki 發起的全新社會實驗，希望將平方募資法與人們天天都在使用的社交平台整合在一起，藉此創造出不一樣的社交生態。他曾[指出](https://gov.gitcoin.co/t/a-quadratic-funding-powered-social-network/9462)，社交平台上的讚或愛心毫無價值而且無限量供應，可說是最正宗的垃圾幣（shitcoin）。即便人們收到很多愛心、按讚，內心仍然相當空虛。相對之下，若能收到小額打賞就實際得多。港台讀者對這套說法肯定相當熟悉，LikeCoin 就是主打化讚為賞。與其按讚送資料給平台，不如打賞送 LikeCoin 給創作者。小額打賞機制可說是 Quadratic Lenster 上的最核心功能。差別在於它不僅能讓人們小額打賞貼文，還另外設立了一筆配對基金，讓人們以平方募資法共同決定這筆資金該分給哪些人。這次活動 Kevin Owocki 拿出 1 萬美元當成配對基金，吸引人們分享有關 #ethcc 也就是這次以太坊社群大會的優質內容。目前獲得最多資金配捐的貼文總共獲得 100 次打賞，共約 306 WMATIC。而這 100 次打賞是來自 16 位用戶，預計能從資金池內分得 4,590 WMATIC，大約是 3,400 美元，約 10 萬台幣。一篇社群貼文可以獲得 10 萬台幣實在太誘人！於是我也在 Quadratic Lenster [發表一篇貼文](https://www.quadraticlenster.xyz/posts/0x0a2f-0x3d)，來測試小額打賞機制。這篇貼文至今獲得 5 次打賞，共 4.1 WMATIC。而這 5 次打賞是來自 2 位用戶。基於這些數據，這篇貼文預計能從資金池內分得 21.96 WMATIC 的資金配捐，約 500 元台幣。但我要先承認，那兩位捐款者一位就是我自己，另一位則是被我邀請來測試這項新功能的區塊勢會員 ctting.eth。我也有請他[發了一篇文](https://www.quadraticlenster.xyz/posts/0x37f8-0x37)。如果大家想要測試小額捐款的話，非常歡迎拿我們的文章來做實驗 😂 參與過上一輪 Gitcoin Grants 小額捐款的讀者，對平方募資法肯定不陌生。以往人們在 Gitcoin Grants 零錢投票的對象是一個又一個的專案，但在 Quadratic Lenster 上小額打賞的對象則是貼文。判斷一篇貼文值不值得打賞，比判斷一個專案更容易。對人們來說也比較熟悉，畢竟每次按讚都像是一種垃圾幣打賞嘛！此外，多數人每天花最多時間的不是社交平台就是影音平台。直接把平方募資法整合在人們的日常生活中，等於是降低參與門檻，比較不會發生像上次 Gitcoin Grants 參與度太低，導致「錢多比人多更重要」的怪異現象。 **重質不重量** 說穿了 Quadratic Lenster 是希望透過平方募資法，以經濟誘因改變人們的社交行為。當前媒體必須下聳動標題才能吸引注意力，有流量才能賣廣告。但在 Quadratic Lenster 上聳動內容會比較不受歡迎。人們看完若覺得被騙，根本不會打賞。反之，內容累積一定口碑的創作者收到小額打賞後，還可以透過配對基金獲得豐厚獎勵。這樣的經濟誘因也會篩選掉那些刻意騙點擊賺流量的內容農場。最終 Quadratic Lenster 有機會孕育出另一套「重質不重量」的內容生態系。只不過，相信大家也都能看出 Quadratic Lenster 的機制還有不少漏洞。例如最終拿到最多配捐資金的貼文，很有可能不是內容最優質的貼文，只是人脈最廣闊的創作者。畢竟平方募資法講究人多比錢多更重要。如果每個人都禮貌性地小額打賞，或是彼此組團刷讚，都很容易讓特定專案獲得的資金配捐往上衝。目前已經有學者正[積極研究](https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4311507)該如何抵抗串通勾結（collusion）。其中一種方式是區分社交關係，例如陌生人的捐款可能會比親朋好友的捐款更可信，因為他們比較沒有利害關係。但如果要區分彼此之間的社交關係遠近，就必須要先有一套可靠的身分制度才行。這就又回到之前討論的女巫攻擊。除了身分問題之外，該如何決定內容好壞也不容易。以往大家看到不好的內容，頂多就是忽略或是封鎖。但如果這是一篇可以獲得資金配捐的貼文，就會有人提議要加入制衡機制。有點像是社交平台不只可以按讚，還可以按爛。只是每次按爛的人也要付出相應的金錢成本，才能抵銷一些按讚的效果。光只有按讚的社群平台，就像是一輛只有油門的汽車。平台不應該鼓勵人們「賽車」，開越快越好。而是要加入煞車機制，才會讓社群氛圍更健康。當然反對者也會質疑，鼓勵人們花錢去按別人爛，真的比較健康嗎？ Quadratic Lenster 是一項社會實驗，中間還有許多待驗證的機制和假設。有可能最終 Kevin Owocki 拿出來的那 1 萬美元配對基金就像是丟進水裡，但那筆錢不算浪費。而是在實驗一套全新的社群平台經濟誘因，這是社群平台與平方募資法的最潮交會。 This post is included in the ethcc round (0xa2ae8421776035c398c22e143290697da09d19d7) at quadraticlenster.xyz
這個想法太酷了！把 Gitcoin 平方募資法和 Lens 結合起來，讓貼文獲得的捐款也可以配對 10K 的資金。明天我就寫這個！ #ethcc [https://www.youtube.com/live/-zT9l63LkEU?feature=share](https://www.youtube.com/live/-zT9l63LkEU?feature=share) This post is included in the ethcc round (0xa2ae8421776035c398c22e143290697da09d19d7) at quadraticlenster.xyz
第一次用星巴克的循環杯，除了要注意在 7 天內歸還而且不是每個門市都能還之外，整體借還、使用的體驗都很棒！之後即便忘了帶自己的杯子，也不會再用一次性紙杯了
