One criticism describes Zora as a "super casino-like purgatory," arguing that Content Coin is more like a meme coin with no intrinsic value, whose transactions rely more on social media buzz than genuine content engagement. Within this zero-sum framework, Zora is less a tool for creators and more a short-term speculative game.
After all, the creator model has appeared in the NFT era and mostly ended in failure.
