1/ This is one of the best parts of NFTs and creator coins - which doesn't need to be just about artwork. Once people get comfortable with the idea of investing in creators by purchasing their coins, things will get really interesting. Read on...

I have sold the #spookies #336 for 400 Deso (~$30.000). Do you know what the best part is? Spookies Coin-holders on Deso got 10% of that sale, meaning that on Deso, all parties win: creators, investors, sellers and the community! @desoprotocol #web3

I think a lot of the tech scene is feeling for #Ukraine because they have talented Ukrainian developers working for them. When your coders are in bomb shelters or carrying guns to protect their cities, instead of writing software code, the impact becomes tangible.

@LivinAnywhere @rafsanchez @clearbluewater2 This won't be forever. You need to put pressure on all Russia so they rise up and change leadership. Think of it as temporary short term pain to solve today's biggest problem. If you compare Ukrainians and Russians dying versus a 10% reduction in tourism travel, easy choice.

3/ People 'invest' in you by purchasing your coin. The price goes up. You sell some of your own supply of your creator coin to purchase the supplies you need to make the chocolate. Fast forward a few months, you 'drop' your limited chocolate product on the market.

5/ It's a virtuous cycle that doesn't need any outside entity (bank, VCs, etc) to support it. It's just the creator and their fans/customers/investors. As a creator, you can fund your creations thanks to your audience. You can reward supporters with a return on investment.
