Adding money to this would easily kill the good intentions of people involved. I don't think it is a right idea.

but it's not money tho. You get tokens that you can only use on the torrent network, I think to have more seed powers. Kind of like if you could use your karma you've accumulated on your torrent community to get better seeds.

I don't think it'd be a bad idea, as it would push more people to seed. I know I'd seed more :)
