I may be the person who’s most excited for  Channel Memberships

Here’s why👇

I’ve long argued that the current iteration of channels feels more like topic tags than Communities. You choose a topic when casting and then your cast goes to people interested in that topic. 

Community is different. Community is a group of people organized around common goals. Layer on onchain and it’s: common goals + collective ownership! 

A big part of our vision is that every channel member is a member-owner with skin in the game. 

When you come to a channel community in a couple weeks you’ll be prompted to buy a membership via Fan Tokens — which gives you access to the channel, partial ownership of it, AND shared participation in all rewards earned by the channel. 

This is the way.

Oh, I am so very excited about it!  I haven't launched Fan Tokens for my channels, yet, but I will be.

I'm really geeked about the upcoming changes.  Building community is my jam, and this is going to make it *so* much easier.  Also continues to pave the way for making channels decentralized as well, so we can have clients that focus on channels - I can imagine a Reddit-style channel client being developed!
