RE: Substrat.io - A Patreon alternative built on Hive

in #hive3 months ago (edited)

Hey! Nice work!
A few ideas: as someone mentioned, Hive is a small community at the moment, and you have an opportunity to reach outside of our chain with this project. You could accept different cryptos as payment, then set a timer after which the post becomes public on Hive for extra earnings. This way, you could onboard new users for the 'crypto-patreon' side at first, and then motivate them to learn about Hive for the extra voting rewards. It could be a good way to onboard new users IMO.

Happy to add it to our ecosystem by the way. I'll need the following:
• name of dapp
• logo URL
• short description
• category ("Social")
• URL

Sort:  

Thanks! Yeah, accepting other cryptos and bridging outside Hive is definitely part of the plan - that's where the real growth potential is. The timed unlock idea is interesting too, kind of a "pay early or wait for free" model. I need to think through how that would work with the encryption, but it's worth exploring.

I'll send you the dapp info for the ecosystem listing - I just need to come up with a logo real quick.

  • name of dapp: Substrat
  • logo URL: substrat.io/substrat-logo-icon.svg
  • short description: A Patreon-style platform for creators to monetize content through subscriptions, tips, and paywalls. Built on Hive with encrypted gated content.
  • category: Social
  • URL: https://substrat.io/

I've shortened the description a bit to let it fit on mobile, let me know if you want to edit it. You can see it in the Ecosystem section of the extension and in the Home page of the mobile App browser now.

But one question: will my content monetization depend on whether I receive tips? I mean, without positive votes?

I ask because I believe that newcomers like me won't have a chance if we depend solely on tips.

Excellent insight

Gotta pull in the audience
