The most direct and high-signal way to support creators is to buy their art. NFTs made this experience digital. Subscriptions create an ongoing form of patronage. All of the above create a direct line of value transfer between the creator and their supporters. Coins don’t do this. Coins are traded through AMMs, and most of the value is *not* captured by the creator. Interesting experiments, but I still don’t understand how this is a better way of “supporting creators” than more direct, lindy alternatives.
