Why it is new

What exists today, and what this does differently

What is new

Bounty boards exist (Superteam Earn) and Blinks exist; approval bounties that live entirely in a Blink were not found.

Closest things out there

Superteam Earn; Dialect Blinks.

Checked with web searches in October 2026. A search is not proof that nothing similar exists, and the market moves fast, so we recheck before every build.

How it earns for you

Makers can always post for free and pay a small fee per bounty, or subscribe to Maker for no fee and the tools that bring entrants back. Teams pay for shared budgets and private bounties.

Maker$6 a monthNo platform fee, runner up splits, Friday drops to followers, license templates

Team$25 a monthEverything in Maker, multiple posters, budgets, CSV export, private bounties

Platform fee on free bounties is set by the owner (3% by default), taken in the escrow program. Solana network fees are a fraction of a cent and can be sponsored.

Prices are yours to set. Illustrative, not a promise of income.

The pitch, ready

Post a paid task as a Blink, accept an entry in the feed, pay in one tap.

Problem: Small makers need small creative jobs done, but posting a job means forms, platforms and trust problems: will the money be there, will the work be real.

Solution: The post is the bounty. USDC is locked in a Solana escrow before anyone starts, entries arrive as replies, copies are flagged, and approving pays the winner inside the post. No winner means an automatic public refund.

Why now: Blinks render Solana actions inside posts and wallets, fees are a fraction of a cent, and small vision models make copy checks cheap enough per entry.

Market: Small makers and shops who need photos, copy and translations, and the freelancers worldwide who want quick paid work found where they already scroll.

The ask: Pilot partners: one maker co-op or market and one creator community, plus ecosystem grant support such as Solana Foundation Grants.

Funding is never guaranteed. Check each program's rules.

For hackathons and demo days

Your 2 minute demo

Home: meet Ama, 27, in Kumasi, with a shop launching Saturday and no good photos.
Post: pick photos, lock 60 USDC, choose the deadline and see the fee and refund rules.
Entries: four replies arrive, a stock photo set is flagged and a late entry cannot be paid.
Entries: approve Kwesi, he is paid inside the post, then share the card.
Wallet: show the escrow and payout receipts, onchain and off chain.
Owner Revenue: change the Maker price and the fee in the paywall editor, preview the Plans sheet.
Owner Rules and Agent: force image checks, change the refund window, read how the helper adapted.
Owner Growth and Roadmap: run a maker market day, then request the v2 entrant profiles.

Many hackathons require code written at the event. See the Regatta Boardfor each race's rule.

BLUEPRINT

Why it matters and how it really works

The need

Small makers need small creative jobs done (photos, labels, translations) and freelancers want quick paid work, but posting a job means forms, platforms and trust problems: will the money be there, will the work be real.

What exists and what is new

What exists: Superteam Earn runs bounty boards for the Solana ecosystem, and Dialect popularized Blinks, Solana actions that render inside posts. Research did not find approval bounties that live entirely inside a Blink, with escrow, entries as replies and payout from the post. Verdict: medium novelty. The parts exist; the combination and the maker focused flow are new.

The data it runs on

Bounty terms and escrow state onchain; entry photos, captions and messages in app storage; image similarity check results kept off chain and shown only to the poster.

1.The mission

Let anyone turn a post into paid work, with the money visibly locked before anyone starts.

2.Why people can't resist it

Money first The post shows the USDC already locked, so entrants know it is real.

Work where people already are Entries arrive as replies. No new app, no form, no account to make.

Fair even when you lose Runner up splits and automatic refunds keep the feed honest and bring people back.

3.How it works for real

Blink: A Solana Action endpoint returns the bounty card and Enter, Approve and Refund transactions; the post renders as a Blink in supporting clients and wallets.

Escrow program: A small Anchor program holds USDC in a PDA with the split rule, deadline and a refund after deadline plus 48 hours. Only the poster's signature releases payouts.

Entries: Entrants submit photos through the Action; files go to object storage, with a hash of the set recorded with the entry.

Entry helper: A reverse image and near duplicate check flags entries found elsewhere online, using a vision model (for example a small Claude Haiku tier call per entry) plus perceptual hashing. It flags, it never decides.

Payout: Approve sends the winner share from escrow in one transaction. Solana fees are a fraction of a cent.

Notifications: Followers of a maker get notified on new drops; entrants get paid, not chosen, or refunded messages.

4.Cost per use and pricing

Per bounty: escrow open, payout and refund are a few Solana transactions at well under $0.01 each, plus a small rent deposit for the escrow account that is returned on close. Image checks: roughly $0.001 to $0.01 per entry with a small vision model. Example month: 200 bounties with 10 entries each is about $10 to $30 in model and fee costs plus hosting.

Free $0 + 3% of bounty

Single winner bounties, image check included.

Maker $6 a month

No platform fee, runner up splits, follower drops, license templates.

Team $25 a month

Multiple posters, budgets, CSV export and private bounties.

5.Growth loop

Every bounty is a public post that shows the money and the payout, which pulls in both new posters and new entrants. Paid entrants share their wins; makers keep a Friday drop habit.

6.Risks and guardrails

Stolen or AI generated work: Image checks flag likely copies, but can miss. The poster decides; payouts can include a license that makes the entrant responsible for originality.

Poster never picks: Funds could be stuck. The program refunds the poster after deadline plus 48 hours, publicly.

Free work extraction: Posters could use entries without paying. Full size files unlock only after payout; previews are watermarked.

Blink support varies: Not every client renders Blinks. A plain link fallback opens the same card in a browser.

Tax and labor rules: Payouts are income for entrants in most countries. Owners should provide records and avoid presenting bounties as employment.

Why own Blink Bounty

Blink Bounty: Post a paid task as a Blink, accept a submission in the feed, pay in one tap. Using someone else's version means their rules, their brand and their revenue. Owning Blink Bounty means it is deployed under your wallet, carries your name, and every customer, partner and result builds your track record instead of theirs.

What’s stopping you?

“I am not technical.”

Blink Bounty arrives deployed with a guide. Running it is settings and sharing links, not code. If you get stuck, we help you ship it.

“What if nobody uses it?”

Start with ten people you already know. The first move below takes under an hour and tells you fast whether people care.

“I do not have time.”

Each step is sized in minutes. Most owners spend an hour a week, and the app does the repetitive part.

“Will it make me money?”

Nothing is guaranteed. The playbook gives you a clear path and honest numbers, and you decide how far to take it.

The million-dollar ladder

Charge the people who get the most value from Blink Bounty: a monthly plan for groups or teams, plus setup fees for anyone who wants it done for them.
