Time to introduce the SLEEP token that rewards you for slumbering. The business model of that token has to be something other than the attention economy, though.

We can implement this when we've all turned cyborg and have direct brain to internet connections.
Seriously though, it sounds ridiculous. Who's going to pay for someone to sleep? My knee-jerk reaction is this is impossible because sleeping doesn't generate value. However, when you think about it, sleep does generate value, as lack of sleep lowers productivity.
However, the idea of quarantining getting paid to sleep to a single coin is probably not viable. This would be a community based feature of a more generic coin that pays for a lot of different activities. The community would have to come to consensus that sleep is pretty important, because a feature like this becomes very redundant in a community that already offers universal basic income.

In fact, it would be in the interest of payers of healthcare be them insurance companies, governments, or employers, to reward people for sleeping. If sleep quality could be measured cheaply, reliably and unobtrusively while using some sort of signal processing to reliably identify the individual sleeping, then rewarding people for getting enough quality sleep could make sense.
