Boost is already being used in retrotwetch! There are enough projects that are incorporating it now that I am certain it will be a success. Once it gets going it will change the world rapidly.

Boosting is glorified charity to miners and shotgun costly targeting at best..by someone with bad aim.
I have a high level of confidence that a system that pays content creators directly will be what works best for boosting or liking.

Boost is like purchasing a neon sign for your oyster stall in an oyster market. It will naturally attract buyers, but they still need to check the quality of the oysters. A seller would only invest in the sign if he was confident his oysters were better.
Boost is like burning money. It's a costly signal, but a supremely common one that is offensive. If it plays out like real life, 9 of 10 of those signals will be false. Boost is embarrassing..segwit level embarrassing.
Once we get Boost incorporated into Twetch it won't even be worth it to you to bother saying that!
If it's implemented on Twetch, I probably won't be interested in Twetch anymore for all the noise created by people who have more money than they ought to have.
