Hate to yuck a lot of the yum going on right now, but I don’t like content coins because they encourage rugging the creator.

Example: someone buys a post of a creator for $5. Later it sells for $100. They make a 20x. The creator gets hardly anything.

That dynamic treats creators like inventory, not people worth supporting.

Promote holding. Reward buyers with rev share. Align incentives around supporting creators, not flipping their work.

Would love to better understand or be proven otherwise.

Additionally, the creator is then in a position to have to potentially rug the audience that is trying to support them as well. It’s PVP. Not supporting creators. Again, someone tell me what I am missing.

Editing this for the third time. I am diñero. I love intelligent conversations

Explain it to me. If I sell a post for $5, and someone makes a 20x profit of it, are you saying I'm entitled to a percentage of that profit (no matter how small)?

The creator can just keep creating more coins and selling them, the same way artists create and sell paintings. I mean, right?

Creator creates for joy. Gets left holding baggage of an angry mob due to market forces being out of their control. 

Joy turns to sorrow.
