Creator confused about how to airdrop to audience #6337

Open bedeho opened 1 month ago

Background

A creator approached me and said they wanted to "airdrop" their creator token to their audience. This simply means they want to send creator tokens to a bunch of accounts at once, and they do not need to collect any payment or anything - at least in Gleev, before doing so. I told them they could just send funds normally in Gleev, which did support multiway payments. But even after being informed about this, they were unable to identify where to do so.

We need to help creators easily execute an airdrop.

Proposal

There are many ways to approach this, the the easiest is just to somehow make it easier for creators to identify how to send their creator tokens. But one can go much much further, depending on how useful this is to creators, with a more end to end solution. This however requires more research.

@bedeho the functionality of transferring CRTs was not implemented. It will be possible to do from Portfolio page.

Here's the original issue:

Great, but lets not close this, because allowing people to transfer is just one way to solve this, and certainly the most sensible fist solution, but something more elaborate may be of use in the future, and it would be good to collect ideas in this vein here.
