Yeah, ads would also not be my 1st pick, but it is a way to inject some amounts of $ to Hive.
For example:
10.000 watched adds a day can bring a project from 1000$ to 4500$ a month. Of course the community should be willing to support the project by watching adds, but it is an idea, a possibility... at least we are looking for ways we can support the blockchain and each idea we can always debate on as a community.
I am not sure yet if we will be there during hivefest, If we will, we are bringing Coldbeetrootsoup with us 😁
Nobody likes ads, but they are a good starting point for keeping the app/game free to play... And there is always an option for those who don't want to watch them, to subscribe and support the game directly... I know it sounds bad, but why not?
