What is stan\em?
This is a web app platform for creating, sharing, and trading unique & short form text content using Ethereum cryptocurrency.
If you think that what you have to say could be worth someone's money, this is the place.
App name is proudly dervied from our Polish acclaimed writer Stanisław Lem.
People change, world change, but words - those never change.
What are Essels?
Essel (abbr. SL, pronounced ess-ell, derived from initials of app name) is a special word for posts on this app.
Every Essel before publishing is highly moderated & curated by our team (@kunv and friends) to ensure quality and uniqueness. No Essels are the same - that's the rules. To emphasize value of every Essel, you can create only one per day.
How to use stan\em?
Simply sign in with your email or social media account and create your own Essel.
Your content will be listed for Ethereum cryptocurrency but automatically displayed as your preferred FIAT currency value. You can change the price however you want. If someone buys your Essel, you are going to receive real Ethereum cryptocurrency to your wallet, that you can withdraw.
If you are interested in buying an Essel that you are interested in, simply deposit any amount of Ethereum to start trading.
Guidelines & restrictions
We conduct really open but strict guidelines on what can be published on stan\em. Our publishing policy is plainly simple.
350 characters limit, to keep Essels short and sweet.
Non-english Essels are allowed, although it may significantly reduce the reach & target price of your Essel.
Contextual no-worded Essels are allowed, for example Essel containing only "8===D" or a string of emojis is going to be published.
No duplicates: Duplicates and minimum effort changes of existing Essels are not allowed. For example, "I'm creaming while baking a cake" and "I'm creaming while making a cake" are considered duplicates.
Blatant use of racial slurs without any provided context is not allowed.
Still in development.
stan\em is currently in a beta version. It's expected to experience minor bugs or lack of features. If you have some spare time, DM me (@kunv) on X (formerly Twitter). For now I heavily prioritize wallet and transaction safety, but there is a steady plan for many features on the roadmap. Stay tuned!
