Speaking on the new project in an essay, Terrell disclosed that the Spill app will use blockchain to compensate users for popular posts and will include a feature called “tea parties” where users can gather online or in real life to connect.
Announcing the app, Terrell tweeted: “However, the blockchain is used to both credit artists and set up a model for us to automatically compensate them. It works incredibly well if they have a spill that becomes popular and we monetize it.”
