The creators driving the next generation of commerce haven’t arrived yet because they don’t have the tools. The community collaboration and reward tools that we’re building with KIKI World

— raw notes taken from a chat with the one and only @ted

the next class of creators* are unique in that they care deeply about community

pre-2010: creator / fan dynamic was distant, controlled

2010-today: dynamic became more interactive via social media, but v top-down
 
crypto-enabled future: dynamic expands to be bottom-up, more reciprocal + participatory w/ crypto tools

*taylor swift is legacy creator who already cares about this

**alix earle is new creator who is deeply passionate about this

***d’amelios don’t count as the next class of creator, imo they flopped for predictable reasons and bad business decisions
