In the development process of Web3, SocialFi and time economy have always been regarded as one of the most promising application directions. Numerous exploratory attempts have emerged in the market around the value trading of influence and time, but a series of core issues still constrain the development of the industry.
Firstly, the difficulty of monetizing time has become a common dilemma. Many users, despite having influence, professional skills, or service capabilities, lack efficient and fair channels for time trading and monetization. The value of users' time and attention cannot be accurately priced and effectively circulated, leaving a gap between supply and demand.
Secondly, low market circulation efficiency. Existing time-related platforms generally face issues such as mismatched supply and demand for time resources, imperfect circulation mechanisms, and insufficient credit guarantees, leading to inefficient or even wasted time. Users who truly need time find it difficult to locate suitable time supply, and those who possess time value also struggle to monetize it smoothly.
Finally, the lack of fair and trustworthy mechanisms. Current time trading mostly relies on centralized matchmaking or private negotiations, lacking open and transparent market rules, which easily breeds trust risks and information asymmetry, restricting broader user participation and the fair release of time value.
Against this backdrop, the Pieverse team has keenly captured these efficiency pain points in time monetization and has built an innovative time economy ecosystem based on BNB Chain — Pieverse Timepot.
Timepot is not just a simple time trading application; it is the first Time Economy Layer on BNB Chain, focusing on solving key pain points such as the difficulty of monetizing time, low circulation efficiency, and the lack of a fair and just market environment by building a complete time economy infrastructure. It is reported that the team has recently launched a new time value flow platform application on the mainnet, which transforms time from being an exclusive resource for a few into a structured, bounded, and credit-guaranteed "time trading market" built on blockchain, turning time from a speculative asset into a practical asset, allowing it to truly return to the essence of service, connection, and monetization.
In the Timepot ecosystem, VCs, scholars, celebrities, and ordinary users can publish, bid, allocate, and use time in the same fair and transparent matchmaking environment, truly realizing the reasonable flow of time value. Whether it is expert consultation, investment guidance, knowledge services, or social interaction and private moments, Timepot standardizes, credits, circulates, and efficiently monetizes time through core mechanisms such as on-chain order pools, time prize pools (Time Draw), and time bidding (Time Bid).
More importantly, Timepot is building a complete ecological layer centered on time, which will allow for the future integration of diverse time applications, serving not only personal-to-person (P2P) time exchanges but also providing efficient and combinable time trading solutions for future projects, platforms, DAOs, and enterprises. This ensures that time no longer belongs solely to speculators but serves every user who truly needs efficient connections.
Why is there an urgent need to reconstruct the business model of time monetization?
Traditional Web2 services and early Web3 platforms generally have four major drawbacks:
Oversupply and unrealistic promises: Celebrities and KOLs often promise a large amount of time but fail to deliver.
Speculative market manipulation: Early buyers profit by reselling time tokens, turning ordinary users into "bag holders."
Mismatched incentive mechanisms: Platforms often focus on "selling tokens" rather than "optimizing time usage and allocation."
Privacy breaches and unsafe transactions: Web2 platforms rely on intrusive data collection to monetize user privacy, while users' transactions lack protection — for example, unfinished Fiverr tasks lead to financial losses for buyers, and sellers struggle to guarantee income.
Pieverse Timepot is committed to establishing a structured, fair, practical, and trustworthy time trading market to address the above challenges.
How does Pieverse Timepot work?
- Time Bid: Bidding for priority attention
In reality, professionals often find it difficult to gain the attention of industry celebrities or opinion leaders.
The Time Bid module addresses this issue in the following ways:
Influencers can filter bidders through a verification system, similar to:
Binding LinkedIn accounts to obtain "blue check certification"
Using work emails and passports to obtain "gold check certification" through KYC
The system automatically compiles users' submitted background information (identity, purpose, topics, expertise, etc.)
This approach significantly enhances the efficiency of influencers in screening and responding to high-quality bids;
for bidders, a complete and clear presentation of information and verified identity can greatly increase the chances of being noticed and contacted.
Additionally, high-value bids will trigger the platform agent to actively facilitate connections between users and influencers, further improving matching efficiency.
Once a Time Bid is accepted, both parties can arrange meetings through integrated tools like Calendly or Zoom for efficient collaboration.
- Time Draw: Fairly win time
Users can also participate in Time Draw (time lottery) with a small fee for a chance to interact one-on-one with target individuals or collectively crowdfund quality content:
Crowdfunded public courses from academic professors and industry experts
Strategic consulting from professionals in various fields
Exclusive interactions with popular idols
To ensure the promise of deliverability, the platform will strictly control the number of available time slots;
at the same time, to attract Web2 users, Pieverse provides fiat payment options (such as credit cards, PayPal, etc.), allowing easy participation without cryptocurrency knowledge.
The platform also features a referral system that encourages users to invite new friends to participate in Time Draw, increasing the chances of winning while promoting platform growth.
- Time Task: Meeting the time service needs of ordinary users
Pieverse Timepot is not just for celebrities; it also supports ordinary users in publishing and obtaining various time service needs, such as:
Social companionship services: such as gaming companions (can connect with platforms like Twitch, e-pal.gg, etc.)
Lifestyle services: personalized cooking lessons, yoga classes, health consultations, etc.
Professional/academic tutoring: skill enhancement, exam guidance, career advice, etc.
This module facilitates a secure and efficient trading mechanism that requires no trust.
The smart contract escrow system can be directly embedded in popular Web2 communities, ensuring transaction transparency, payment security, and privacy protection.
VC Arena: The first practical application of the Timepot time economy ecosystem
It is reported that the VC Arena platform event initiated by Pieverse Timepot has now launched, marking the first real-world experiment based on the Time Economy Layer. It is an innovative attempt at time monetization and time value flow.
In this month-long community co-creation event, entrepreneurs, community members, investors, celebrities, and KOLs have achieved on-chain time trading and efficient connections through the Timepot platform for the first time. Through the Time Bid and community voting mechanisms, users can use time as a medium to bid fairly and establish real connections with top VCs and influential figures.
Unlike traditional investment or consulting matchmaking, VC Arena has designed a multi-party win-win time monetization mechanism —
founders and community members can exchange time for resources and exposure, while VCs and celebrities capture high-quality projects with fragmented time, and ordinary users can earn Time Points rewards through voting and participation. The platform significantly enhances the efficiency of time circulation and monetization through full-chain transparency, fair bidding, and credit incentives.
This is an important experiment for Pieverse Timepot in the application layer of the Time Economy Layer and a meaningful industry exploration to transform time from "being wasted" to "being efficiently utilized."
Bridging Web2 and Web3
VC Arena is just the first practical application of the Timepot time economy ecosystem, but it is by no means the end.
Pieverse Timepot aims to become the first Web3 native platform widely adopted by Web2 users,
achieving a true mainstream breakthrough by seamlessly integrating the usability of Web2 with the trustless mechanisms of Web3.
The platform states that it will also support fiat payment channels such as PayPal and Venmo in the future, significantly lowering the usage threshold;
it will incorporate a viral dissemination mechanism, encouraging users to actively promote through referral tasks and a personal Time Profile points system (to be released later).
In the future, Pieverse Timepot will continue to expand the application boundaries around "how time flows" and "how time is monetized," integrating more real and feasible time consumption scenarios to create an on-chain time economy that serves everyone:
Crowdfunded public courses: Inviting academic authorities and professors from prestigious universities to initiate high-quality online public courses with distinct themes through Time Draw or Time Bid, reshaping knowledge transfer and educational business models.
Themed talk shows & speech series: Allowing interesting souls to be seen by more people. Users can initiate or support time proposals from their favorite speakers, crowdfunding a themed speech or talk show performance centered on viewpoints and expression.
Musician & artist programs: Returning time to content creation itself. Timepot will launch a "time creation prize pool," supporting creators to receive real support during the creation cycle, with fans participating with time or funds and enjoying exclusive rewards.
Entertainment events and offline interactions: Timepot is planning to collaborate with several well-known organizers to launch "Web3 music festivals" or "immersive social experience" events based on time rights, combining on-chain time certificates with real participation tickets to explore the boundary possibilities of "time assets × entertainment economy."
From online communication and educational consulting to content creation and offline socializing, Pieverse Timepot is reconstructing services, connections, and incentive mechanisms by treating "time value" as an atomic unit, ensuring that every minute of time is used, respected, and monetized in the right context. Pieverse Timepot is building a new time value infrastructure, allowing time to flow, be monetized, and create real value instead of being stagnant and wasted.
