How the Yesodi Coins Economy Works and What Coins Buy | Yesodi

What Yesodi coins are and how they work

Yesodi coins are a spend only promotional currency inside the platform, set at a simple rate of 100 coins to 1 dollar. You use them to buy visibility and extras, not to pay for the right to exist on Yesodi, because publishing your profile, products, events and articles is free. Coins are spend only, which means they are meant to be used inside Yesodi rather than cashed out. Think of them the way many apps treat in app credits, a balance that unlocks features and reach once applied. The core idea is straightforward, free to publish, coins to amplify.

Why platforms use a coin layer at all

Across social and creator apps, an internal currency keeps value moving inside the ecosystem so that reach, tips and upgrades are easy to buy with one balance. Instead of a separate checkout for every small action, you top up once and spend across many features. This pattern appears on large platforms where viewers buy coins to reward creators or unlock extras, which in turn boosts a creator visibility. Yesodi follows the same logic but keeps the base platform open, so the coin layer sits on top of free publishing rather than gating it.

Spotlight and post boosts

The most common use of coins is buying attention for what you already published. Spotlight lets you lift a profile, product, event or article into a more prominent position so more members see it. Post boosts push an individual post further into rotation so it reaches beyond your existing followers. Because publishing is free, boosting is a choice you make only when you want extra momentum behind something specific. You spend coins, you get reach, and you keep full control over what to amplify and when.

Creator tips

Coins also let members support the people whose work they value. A tip sends coins directly to a creator as a clear signal of appreciation for a post, an article, a track or a service. This mirrors the wider creator economy, where audiences reward makers with a platform currency rather than leaving support to chance. Tipping is optional and member driven, so creators earn recognition through the community rather than through paywalls on their content. It is a simple way to say this was worth it.

AI tool upgrades

Yesodi includes AI assisted tools that help you produce and polish what you publish. Coins can unlock upgrades to these tools when you want more than the standard free pass, for example deeper assistance while preparing a post or an article. The base creation flow stays free so anyone can publish, and coins simply buy the heavier lifting when you choose it. This keeps the entry point open while letting power users spend on extra capability. You decide when a task is worth an upgrade.

Game stakes

Coins are the stake currency for Yesodi head to head games such as chess and trivia, and for the solo arcade. Two players each put up a set coin stake, the pot is held in escrow, and the winner takes the payout while the platform keeps a small rake. A draw returns most of the stake to each player. This turns casual play into a light, fair competition with real skin in the game, all inside the same coin balance you use for boosts and tips. No outside wallet, no separate checkout, just coins.

Topping up and keeping it simple

You add coins through the platform when you want to boost, tip, upgrade a tool or play, and the 100 to 1 rate keeps the math easy to read. Because coins are spend only, they are designed to circulate inside Yesodi rather than act as a bank balance. The guiding rule never changes, publishing is free and coins are for amplification. That separation means you are never charged to be on Yesodi, only to go further when you want to. Top up when you need reach, spend when it counts.
