Braintrust (BTRST) Feed: Events, News & Roadmap

What is Braintrust?

Braintrust is a decentralized talent network built on blockchain. It challenges traditional freelance platforms by eliminating the extractive model, ensuring that the network’s value is returned to its users rather than a centralized operator. This user-centric approach leads to reduced costs for companies and better compensation for freelancers, fundamentally transforming how talent networks operate.

The Braintrust ecosystem is comprised of three main entities: talent, connectors, and clients. Talent, or freelancers, undergo a verification process to validate their skills before gaining access to job listings. Connectors play a pivotal role in expanding the network by inviting new talent and clients, and they earn rewards for successful referrals. Clients post job listings, and because the network doesn“t charge network fees, talent receive the full payment from an issued invoice. However, Braintrust nodes levy a 10% fee on the client”s invoice.

The BTRST token serves as an integral part of the Braintrust ecosystem. Talent earn BTRST tokens by participating in community activities, completing courses in Braintrust Academy, receiving top-tier reviews, or through staking to enhance their job application visibility. Clients can stake BTRST tokens to make their job listings more prominent, ensuring they attract top talent. The token fosters active participation and engagement within the Braintrust community.
