We’re planning to launch a new, optional “Pro” protocol subscription 1. At launch, subscribers will have a Pro badge on their profile 2. Subscription will be onchain and part of the protocol. 100% of the proceeds go to casters / developers in weekly rewards. This in addition to the existing $25K+ a week in rewards. 3. Planning to add longer casts (10K characters) and up to 4 images per cast for pro subscribers (needs a protocol change). Additional features over time. 4. $120 a year / $10 a month Why are we doing this? - The protocol needs to find long-term revenue source that can continue fund caster and developer rewards beyond any one company. - We originally thought storage fees could be that, but we’ve realized that storage fees should be essentialy free to help growth. - So we’re trying an opt-in pro subscription as another model Why now? - Figuring out a long-term revenue model that works will allow us to double down on investing in growth

- We originally thought storage fees could be that, but we’ve realized that storage fees should be essentialy free to help growth. what does happen with warplet swap fees? (Is it out of the protocol, like a warpcast only thing?) what does happen with storage units? (in general, and paid ones) how much additional features will be added in the future? Are you planning on removing any other permissionless feature in the feature to become it a pro only one? what does happen with API ? Will get pro features (images and casts) or limited? how do you think this could be affect future clients? will be forced to implement this pro privileges and restrict all other users?
