Trying to figure out the content/creator coins thingy, I built this mental model: It’s about monetisation, but the main question has been: how can creators make actual money without selling their coins and looking like they're rugging? Well, don’t sell The main income stream is the 0.5% perpetual trading fee you get every time someone buy OR sell your content coins, distributed as ZORA (or ETH?), so you can sell this as you please. $1k daily volume across your content = $5/day = $150/month The better the content, the more engagement, the more trading, the more fees. The better your creator reputation, the more attention your content has = flywheel as they say. I bet the feed algo is partially based on that These are coins. Traders gonna trade. Non-traders can show appreciation by “tipping” = actually buying a share they’ll keep, benefiting from the upside, potentially selling later It is still an attention game, but the monetisation is more direct than via likes, followers, ads and sponsors
