Show IH: Aurabid, a website where you bid on people

I saw the bid-to-rank thing for companies and thought it should obviously exist for people too.

So I made Aurabid: https://aurabid.now

Put in your handle and pay to push yourself above other people. Every dollar buys 100 aura. More aura means a higher rank.

There are world, continent, country, and city leaderboards, but the idea is simple: you are buying a place above somebody else.

Daniel is currently #1 because he is the only person on the board.

Would you bid on yourself?
