I know this is a way bigger convo than a random comment and you guys are already thinking about this probably, but the UX of buying storage and tracking usage is brutal. My unsolicited opinion: to subscription / recurring revenue model way sooner than later. It’s $5 a month to use Warpcast. $5 to signup and create your account and then you get a list of features, an immutable social identity, and x amount of initial storage. I don’t know how the math works but if your auto charging $5 monthly then I feel like that rev would possibly outweigh the storage costs and then be EV+? You can also just background charge this using Apple Pay, like how the Titan investment app works. Another model you could steal from them is refer 3 friends that signup = get 1 month free storage.
