Desyr.net is another social network that hopes to differentiate itself by allowing users to vote for each other with a form of virtual currency.
Users can surf through others’ profiles and if they like what they see, they can offer them a gift. You start with $1000 which you can use to literally buy other people. If someone is bought, the price for someone else to buy them goes up and the more a person is worth, the more popular they become. If you like someone, vote for them, send them a message, buy them, or give them a gift. Desyr is also a mobile solution so you can keep track while you are on the go.
