Relevant works in a way that is different from those two options you mentioned and there has been no ad here, there is however a very good means of rewarding those who make positive contributions on the platform - post a good content on any of the communities and bet handsomely on your content, you should be able to throw your weight behind your own post, right?
And to make it even better, in accordance with the working process of Relevant's reward system which rewards those who bet earlier better (the first to bet having the best chance), the team is seriously considering an option that was suggested by a user some days ago, which will reserve the option to bet on a post to only the poster for a few minutes, ensuring that he/she has a fair chance of being the first to do that.
With this, you have a big chance at awesome reward - make quality posts, bet huge amount, be the first to bet; then you'll have the lion's share.
