Telegram Wants To Share Its Revenue With You

TL;DR

Full Story

“That is going to sound odd, however hear us out…

Google kinda embodies the Web3 ethos.

Or extra particularly:

The (Google owned) YouTube platform embodies the Web3 ethos of “You helped construct it? You get to revenue from it” — with its shared advert income mannequin, the place creators get 55%, whereas Google takes 45%.

What excites us about blockchain know-how is the way it brings that mannequin into attain for smaller platforms, by making it means simpler to routinely gather/disperse financial worth between house owners/customers/traders.

For instance:

The opposite day, we wrote about how Uniswap was routinely scanning its token holders’ wallets, checking they’d contributed, then — look forward to it…

Dispersing the platform’s each day payment earnings (at the moment $200M+) between them.

(It’s such a cool idea that we’ve now written about it twice in 3 days).

And at this time, now we have a brand new one to your listing of ‘cool Web3 enabled income sharing examples’…

In March, Telegram will:

Launch its personal self-serve advert platform.

Begin splitting all advert income 50/50 with its channel house owners (all paid out within the Telegram-endorsed TON token).

And positive, Telegram’s advert attain is tiny in comparison with YouTube’s, nevertheless it has a TON (unintentional pun, leaving it in) of room left to develop — trigger proper now:

Telegram channels create 1 TRILLION month-to-month views, whereas solely 10% of these channels are at the moment monetized with Telegram adverts.

It’s a welcomed replace to the deal most Web2 platforms make with their customers…

Web2 = “Use our platform free of charge, we’ll monetize your consideration.”Web3 = “Use our platform free of charge, we’ll monetize your consideration, and provide you with a reduce of the income.”
