The Tribute to Talk swarm will deliver SNT based anti-spam mechanisms in accordance with the white paper.
It allows individuals to monetize their time and attention by setting minimum required deposits to message them.

Previous work:
An initial version of Tribute to Talk was partially developed and designed back in April/May.
The existing smart contract documentation is here. Written by Richard Ramos (@rramos).
The previous designs were shared in these github issues.
Ongoing design exploration available here
Changes to the smart contract may be required in order to meet specs defined in this swarm.
Potential user stories for MVP:
- As an influential person, I want to set a minimum required deposit to speak with me on Status.
- I want to review incoming requests from people who have made deposits.
- I want to read the sender's message before accepting or ignoring their request.
- I want to receive payment from the sender when I respond to their request.
- I want the option to close the line of communication again afterward.
- I want the option to waive the deposit and still accept the message. --
- As a fan of some influential person, I want to offer an SNT deposit in order to message that person.
- I want to be notified when the person has accepted my message and sent a reply.
- I want to receive my SNT back if the person does not respond to my message.
Research questions:
- Is this feature comparable to any other anti-spam mechanisms? Will people understand the concept? What UX references are relevant?
- What features does the current smart contract support?
- Do we need to conduct an audit on the contract before launch?
- Identifiy incompatibilies with other features/issues—e.g. inability to remove contacts once added, overlap with core issues, etc.
