Crypto fixes this

The big opportunity in crypto is to look outside of crypto—to solve old problems with new incentive design.

Dating, for example, is a category that’s especially primed for re-imagination. Companies want you to stay on the apps, while users are dying to get off.

Incentives are at the heart of the problem.

I wonder: Could the next big thing in dating look something like a bounty or staking model where matchmakers get rewarded for finding their most eligible friends matches?

There’s a sizable opportunity to disrupt boomer industries by re-imagining their broken incentives from first principles, now made possible on crypto rails.  

If I were a developer working on a consumer crypto, I’d start by looking for markets with misaligned incentives.
