We’re planning to launch a new, optional “Pro” protocol subscription
1. At launch, subscribers will have a Pro badge on their profile
2. Subscription will be onchain and part of the protocol. 100% of the proceeds go to casters / developers in weekly rewards. This in addition to the existing $25K+ a week in rewards.
3. Planning to add longer casts (10K characters) and up to 4 images per cast for pro subscribers (needs a protocol change). Additional features over time.
4. $120 a year / $10 a month
Why are we doing this?
- The protocol needs to find long-term revenue source that can continue fund caster and developer rewards beyond any one company.
- We originally thought storage fees could be that, but we’ve realized that storage fees should be essentialy free to help growth.
- So we’re trying an opt-in pro subscription as another model
Why now?
- Figuring out a long-term revenue model that works will allow us to double down on investing in growth
