I thought I had accidentally paid someone $100 for one hour of browsing
I was sitting there watching the balance calculations in our product when I noticed the numbers going up way faster than expected.
For a few seconds, I genuinely thought:
“Wait… did I just accidentally make someone $100 in one hour?” 😭
Then I remembered I was testing locally with a really big multiplier.
Btw we’re building Tributly - a browser extension that adds a small sponsor panel to your browsing experience. Advertisers pay for the attention, and users get a share of the verified ad revenue.
The idea is to let people earn a little passively while browsing normally.
We’re still early, so I’d genuinely love some honest feedback.

Love the idea of turning attention into something users can own.
Curious about your go-to-market strategy though — are you focusing on a specific user group first (students, creators, etc.), or trying to build a broad consumer product from day one?
The product depends on people seeing enough value in passive earnings to install and keep using the extension.
Was there a moment that convinced you people would adopt it because they wanted to earn, rather than simply because they were curious to try it once?
