This post is an objective review and in no way indicates support or disapproval of the PTCShare platform. The platform itself seems to be your average 'make money at home by clicking random ads' platform with a pretty intuitive interface and nothing too questionable.
The PTCShare platform can pay out in fiat or BTC/LTC. You have to spend quite a bit of time working on it to earn enough to justify a payout. Most people seem to be in the $1 range.
Read through the post before getting to the link to the platform to make sure you know what you're clicking on and to help me complete the review.
Upon verifying your account you will see:
It takes you through a couple of informational tips. Upon closing the popup you're left with the following dashboard:
The top menu gives you a few tasks to complete:
Everything is centered around the ad interface. The ads track whether you're actively watching them or have tabbed out. If you've tabbed out, the timer restarts. The timer seems to be in 5 sec increments with 30 secs being the highest (or the highest that's currently bought by ad providers).
You have to select the appropriate image to proceed. This prevents botting.
It appears that you will get cheaper and cheaper ads as you go along,
The timer of how long you have to wait to view the ad also increases,
After clicking on ads for a while you're left with a whole lot of waiting and ads under a penny each.
The idea is you disable your AdBlock and click the grid in order to win Bonus Ad Points (BAPs). Clicking on the grid takes you to the usual ads viewer page. You get a set number of tries. Random squares may grant you BAPs but typically you'll just get the usual better luck next time.
You'll see random glitches all over the site:
You can buy and sell the BAP tokens that you get for completing achievements or playing the Grid. They accumulate. You need 12,000 BAPs to place a sell order.
You can waste your BAPs by playing games. Nothing unusual, the same games we have everywhere except BAPs are worth considerably less than let's say playing with STEEM. It's a way to waste time and use the tokens, that's it.
This game actually didn't work for me even after completing the 8/8 ads. I played the Slots game instead and got an achievement for making 5 spins.

I can't test this without someone clicking. Go ahead and try it out with my link above and I'll update this post once I see the results.
After messing around it for a while I earned a few cents and about 135 BAPs.
This platform appears to be geared towards people who have nothing better to do and can sit there for hours clicking on random ads and signing up for games, offers and all that. I'd guess that these are the types that have nothing better to do at work and sit on the site while getting paid. The usual Solitaire players.
There is a FAQ available with further details here: https://ptcshare.kb.help
Very limited. This isn't something that will work on Steem for the simple reason that having each transaction set with an additional 3 second delay plus potential node lag will further disrupt the product for both the end users and the ad clients. Having said that, it can easily use STEEM as a currency to pay out with (it already does so with BTC), while keeping the platform itself centralized and off-chain. However, the cost to the platform owner of setting up and running it in relation to the chain vs on its own as is would not sufficiently balance or pay off.
