I love this idea!  Very out of the box, and most folks aren't the best at creating content.  By definition, only the best creators are.  However, even the best creators need audience for their excellent skills to have value, and most people can consume most content.  Some of us, of course, are better at that too.  I would probably make a fortune due to my obsessive reading of Steem posts.

A question occurs to me regarding consumption.  Presently we note there are no few commenters that indicate little or no familiarity with the OP they comment on.  'Nice post!' and commercial spam comments are notorious, and their frequency occasions no little ire.  What would indicate that content had actually been consumed?  Clearly simply making a comment would not do this, and absent some other metric would produce an imperial shit ton of comment bots - something none of us wants (I hope).

Thanks!

Thank you!

This will not require any interactive actions like voting, commenting, or reateeming. 

It would only count what the users viewed and how much time spent on a post, video, or playing games. To my understanding any Apps can gather that information. So the algorithm used will need to be implemented by the Apps. 

Participating Apps in return will be awarded certain amount of Consume tokens so they can use them to attract more users to use their Apps.

Challenge is how to implement it on a blockchain level without requirng a hard fork, but keeping it functioning on top of Steem.

Well, I submit that the real challenge is to actually detect consumption.  Botting began in games, back in the '90s, and many games yet have problems with this.  @drugwars has recently banned many accounts for exactly that.  Simple scripts can point computers at content, and no one would be the wiser without some means of differentiating those scripts from actual eyeballs.

Until you solve this problem, all you can do is enable bots to be profitable posing as people, and most dApps will be well aware of this.  They won't want to pay for bogus views.
