Vitalik Buterin proposes new creator token model combining DAOs, prediction markets

Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin has proposed a new creator token model that combines Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) with prediction market mechanisms, Cointelegraph reported. In a recent post on X, Buterin argued that existing creator tokens incentivize mass production over content quality. Under his proposal, content creators would issue tokens that a curated creator DAO would then adopt. This adoption would involve burning the tokens, increasing their scarcity and potential value, while allowing investors to earn profits by predicting which content gets selected.
