token-gated channel > token-gated group chat because it allows the value of the group chat to be publicly accessed while participation is still gated 

free and valuable

just as the internet would want

for Native (the onchain publication coming soon™️), i don’t think I’m going to launch an open Hypersub

i think i’m going to gate access to contributors

any contributor will be able to mint time to support the publication and participate in gated conversation publicly

media dealer ↑ /believein /native /jihad

they’ll also be able to use the channel to amplify their own work to Native’s audience

contributors can be rewarded for their contributions with more time

Token-gated channel > token-gated chat to make the convo free and valuable is absolute fire! 

Almost turns it into a large async podcast of sorts.
