Not so long ago a team of blockchain enthusiasts came together to brainstorm on a blockchain that will add value to the online attention economy.
Just as the Steem blockchain was created to give better attention and monetary reward to original creative works.
The team at Synero is also developing its blockchain in a way to allow content creators to easily monetize their creative works without having to turn to advert network to monetize their original work while granting their followers the opportunity to be rewarded for getting the word out.
Synero aims to give a future to content creation, publishing, and distribution.
With the synero blockchain, anyone with an Internet access can get paid for creating unique content, get paid for curating content that you like, and finally be able to amplify the reach of your message to infinity and beyond.
Here is a video you should watch to learn more about the Synero blockchain.
AFTER A LONG PERIOD OF WAITING, SYNERO FINALLY LAUNCHES WILDSPARK.
On 10th August 2017, Synero announces the launch of the Wildspark Beta Version on a post published on the dev team's blog here https://blog.synereo.com/2017/08/10/wildspark-open-beta/

As of today, wildspark is available to everyone and you can join the community to earn AMPs (Synero crypto-currency) for your engagements on the blockchain.
It is free to become a member of the Wildspark community, and you will even get some free AMPs as sign up bonus.
At the moment, Wildspark only works with Youtube content with more network to be added later in the future.
All you have to do to earn some AMPs is to either upload your unique content on Youtube or promote videos you think will go viral on the Youtube video network.
Without wasting much of your precious time, let's jump into the tutorial section of this post.
HOW TO GET STARTED ON WILDSPARK
Before I get started, please note that Wildspark only works on a desktop and the app is only available for Google Chrome browser.
Now let's get started
Step 1
Go to https://wildspark.me/ on your Google Chrome browser
Click on the Get The Extension button that the red arrow points to in the image above.
Once you have downloaded the Chrome extension from Chrome store, install and activate it, then you are ready to go.
Step 2
Go back to wildspark's official website here https://wildspark.me/.
You will notice that the Get The Extension button has disappeared; that means you have correctly installed and activated the extension.
Also if you have installed and enabled the extension correctly, you will find the extension icon on the toolbar of your Chrome browser as in the image below.
By now, you should have confirmed that you have installed the wildspark extension app.
Let's go to step three.
Step 3
Now go to https://youtube.com to find viral content or create a unique video and upload it to your YouTube channel.
Go to the video page, you will find the signup form to create your account with Wildspark.
You can signup with an email or use your present social network credentials to create your account. Signup is fast and instantly.
After signup, you will discover the Wildspark app is overlayed at the top left on the video page. See the image below to see the floating app pointed to by the red arrow.
Step 4
To amplify a content and make AMPs back from the video content, you need to click on the Wildspark overlayed app and it will open up like in the image below.
Enter the amount of AMP you want to give to the video creator and curators before you. The minimum at the moment is 0.1 AMP; from my test, I don't think the amount you entered will determine how much you make as the creator or the curator.
You will be given a unique link that you can share with other people and earn AMPs when they engage the blockchain from your link.

HOW AMPs EARNED PER CONTENT ARE SHARED
Every Amp given are shared as follows:
- 1/3 to the creator.
- 1/3 to the curator whose link you clicked on.
- The remaining 1/3 to a Fractal Reserve
The funds in the Fractal Reserves are used to reward earlier generations of curators. Each curator up the chain gets half of the remaining Reserve.

You can learn more about the sharing ration and wildspark in general on the official doc page here https://wildspark.me/doc/
The dev team is currently giving away 8000 AMPs each week, and that is good news as you can pick up so AMPs without investment.
Please learn more about the giveaway here https://blog.synereo.com/2017/08/14/8000-amps-free-weekly-wildspark-leaderboard/
CONCLUSION
Just as the community behind Steemit is powering the growth behind the growth of the Steem ecosystem, I believe the wildspark community will become active in the growth of AMP (please do your researches before you invest, and invest at your own risk).
I have amplified a few Steemit videos. We can amplify more to onboard new users from the Wildspark community.
Here are links to videos that I amplified for more views and reach.
