New short essay (3 min read) on value and creative labor. TL;DR: - The vast majority of pro writers don’t earn a sustainable living from their creative work. - This is a huge collective loss. - Can web3 do better? https://paragraph.xyz/@danicaswanson/writers-web3-and-earning-a-living/?referrer=danicaswanson.eth

Feel like @cameron would have input on this. Basically how web3 can enable content to stand on its own as monetization instead of having to play the chase followers and ask for subs sales game. More writing less shilling To me collect on paragraph and things like that are an awesome way. Tipping natively like warps

“More writing less shilling” is my North Star too. How can web3 get there? I doubt tipping will be enough. But I'd like to see 1000 experiments bloom. We don’t have to start from scratch. I think we can learn a lot from the mechanism design of @zora Protocol Rewards and the Ethereum Protocol Guild.

Web3 literary minting culture (as I've observed it so far on Paragraph and Mirror) is in its infancy. It may not work the same way Zora’s art minting culture does, but in any case I think context is the key. Minting alone, without much context, is supplemental income at best.
