Can someone tell me what the creator economy is on Ethereum apart from just minting NFT’s or tokens that you can sell your fans? Like, is there any kind of interesting unique business model that’s not a convoluted weird way of just saying “hey please buy my art on chain, even though you could’ve just watched it for free, as a way of supporting me or speculating on the price” ? Sincere question I’m not saying that that’s totally unvaluable. Platforms like Patreon are successful, but I kind of hope there’s a more interesting business model that either hasn’t been thought of yet or that I haven’t heard of.

great questions. tbh i think “hey please buy my art on chain, even though you could’ve just watched it for free, as a way of supporting me or speculating on the price” is pretty much it we've explored creator-audience revenue sharing mechanisms for @hypersub (https://docs.withfabric.xyz/stp/rewards), which people seem to like, but it hasn't lead to significant growth and doesn't seem to be a meaningful differentiator the optimistic and pessimistic view of "web3" is that it hasn't yet figured out novel, better monetization models
