AMA w David Phelps (cofounder, JokeRace, the platform to vote and earn in contests)

Hi everyone!

I'm David, cofounder of JokeRace.

JokeRace is a platform for anyone to earn by voting with conviction on their tastes, preferences, and beliefs. Creators can launch campaigns for anything, including demo days, community awards, polls, group decisions, design contests, and even reality TV shows.

Players can buy votes on entries: their funds go into a rewards pool, and voters on winning entries earn a proportionate share of the rewards. In the first two months after launching price curves—which give higher ROI to early conviction voters—JokeRace has generated over $1,500,000 for voters.

I also post a bunch about crypto on Twitter (as I keep calling it) and Substack.

AMA about anything you like: prediction markets vs conviction markets, why the attention economy runs on feuds, why good marketing should be free, or what it's like to build an app in crypto or generally (this is my third company!)

Excited to be here.
