creators of farcaster, let’s play a game of Would You Rather (I’m trying to see something)

WYR:

1) See 200 people mint your content for a total of 800 mints, & make $250 in rewards after platform fees etc 

OR

2) See 200 people mint your content only one time each, but you make $600 in rewards.

Show your work!

#1 all day for something like an open edition/1155. Those 200 people could potentially turn into the full 800 individuals from secondary/sharing with friends (unlikely to get 800 unique holders this way, but anything is possible). More the merrier.

And then put out good, consistent content that people want and that other $600 will show up eventually in another form.

This is how I probably would have answered before too but I’m not so sure these viral loops exist like they used to. “Back in the day” (read: last year) getting 3000 mints on something would have it all over the timeline, top of mint.fun etc and it would balloon to 10,000 plus. But now mint.fun is gone and I don’t see the same virality happening from high mint numbers anymore.

Scarcity is just as much of a vanity as large numbers are, fomo being one of the biggest factor with a small collection size. And for me, it is 100% determined by my mood of that day whether it’s an open or limited edition lol

More money is always nice but usually not the right dragon to chase from my experience
