Correct. I wish @24 was wrong however.

POW-backed content is our only hope for better honest online and social media. I wish that weren't true. But it is.

It is the empowerment of the individual.

Content is inherently POW-backed. If it's actually good, do you think they used a random generator to produce it?

Boost is fundamentally a voting mechanism. But it is a voting mechanism that doesn't reward the content creator, so is it a good one?

You are correct. What I meant to say was:

An objective measure of energy (such as Bitcoin Difficulty) in POW-backed content is our only hope for better honest online and social media.

Boost is backed by capital, not Proof of Work. It doesn't matter that PoW is involved in the system because it's not an input to the system.

Everything a person can do is backed by their capital.

Capital means "investment or asset or contribution".

For example, eating a mango is backed by the person's primary direct property called their "body". This is capital, too.
