40 mints on Rodeo = 40 x 0.0001 ETH mint price x 50% creator cut = 0.002 ETH for the artist

0.004 ETH volume on a Zora coin —> 1% trading fee of 0.00004 ETH x 50% creator cut = 0.00002 ETH for the artist
(ignoring the token allocation because that's typically worth ~nothing)

literally 100x difference... NFTs are so much better than content coins for the average creator. I'm not even against content coins per se — I think memecoins are interesting and this is another flavor — but the empowerment rhetoric is hard to swallow

honestly my biggest problem with content coins (as currently deployed),
far more than the ephemerality (which I do also object to, from the collector side!),
is the hilariously minuscule cut that creators get

like what do you mean there was $800 of volume and I made $2? people spend $800 human dollars on something I made, and I got TWO DOLLARS of that? nah

I crossposted the same image on Rodeo, where it was minted 5 times = $1.25, of which I got half: $0.63

meaning that:
• Zora ratio of volume to earnings = 372:1
• Rodeo ratio of volume to earnings = 2:1

Hard agree. Rodeo would have been a million times better to push than rebranded memecoins. Big fan of the content you’re putting out and enjoyed the Pathway mint stuff.
