Traditionally the term _mining_ in cryptocurrency refers to the process of
|
||
|
contributing compute resources to the network and earning a reward. On the
|
||
|
Blockstack network, however, instead of just mining through computation,
|
||
|
developers can mine by contributing apps to the ecosystem and making
|
||
|
applications the community wants.

|
Founders that build apps using Blockstack developer tools like Blockstack Auth
|
||
|
get paid each month, in amounts proportional to that month’s app quality
|
||
|
ranking. Blockstack PBC, in cooperation with App.co, currently administers the
|
||
|
payouts. A set of independent _App reviewers_ determines the monthly ranking
|
||
|
during the pilot phase.
