We're definitely trying to figure it out! To start, we need to get to a spot where we can get reliable signal on new ideas in a quick & cheap way. Some things we've discussed: - Enabling coins at the publication-level (something like a creator token). Could be a nice alternative to paid subscriptions or NFT memberships. It could be cool to let people "invest" in a recently launched publication, or a writer they really enjoy that's just getting started. There's some interesting cases where writers cap the number of subscribers / members in web2 world, either directly (e.g., 10,000 email list max) or indirectly (e.g., set a really high price to keep paid subs down) — it's interesting to think about whether you could cap members based on coin issuance, and whether you could create a market around membership (similar to some private clubs IRL). Couple more ideas below...
