Web3 influencers can:

2. Make a profile of your channel on Telegram/Twitter and verify it by OAuth to get NFT channel ID
3. Accept ads orders from advertisers ASAP, make ads in time and the best quality to grow the Rating
4. Receive payments for ads in the stablecoin from smart-contract

During the hackathon, we :
1. Deployed the B4B protocol on ZkSync
2. Added a paymaster that covers the gas cost for influencers' interactions with the protocol

The influencer's gas is covered from the fees that advertisers pay on the ad order creation step. If an influencer rejects an order or is unable to fulfill obligations on time, the advertiser can return their escrowed ad budget and full deposit from the Paymaster.
A gas-free experience has the potential to significantly lower the entry barrier for influencers, streamlining their on-boarding process. This is utmost importance because influencers are the hard side of the marketplace.
