Feature idea: pay people to criticize your idea.

You submit an idea with a ‘criticism bounty’ of ten bucks per pending criticism received, say.

The amount should be arbitrarily customizable (while covering transaction costs).

There could then be a page for bounties at /bounties. And a page listing a user’s bounties at /:username/bounties.

When starting a bounty, the user indicates terms such as what kinds of criticism they want. This way, they avoid having to pay people pointing out typos, say.

Anyone can start a bounty on any idea. There can only be one bounty per idea at a time.

How do you ensure the criticism is worthy of the bounty?

There could be a grace period. For example, 24 hours after the bounty ends, no new criticisms can be posted on the bountied idea. That way, the bounty initiator has time to review pending criticisms.

What happens if they neglect to review pending criticisms?

Then all pending criticisms automatically receive equal payouts.
