Most of crypto is really expensive to get into.

DeFi -- bridge your money and make transactions on the Eth L1 or wade through the forest of L2s to sketchy "protocols" and insecure smart contracts for that sweet sweet 3.4% APY. 

Gaming -- The starting costs to play many games can get into the $100s very quickly

DeSoc is familiar and pretty much free, and it's relatively easy for regular people to onboard.

But ultimately, those folks will follow their fav creators to whatever platform they're on.

So why will they choose to move to DeSoc platforms?

1) The ability to monetize from day 1. 

Crypto payments will be built into the platform. It will be natural for Gumroad style creators to get paid for content like PDFs by minting NFTs associated with them.

2) You can own your relationship with your fans, creating better aligned incentives for all.
