Tradable Comics
Micro-DAOs for Efficient Execution
🎧 On the go? Listen to today’s podcast with Smoke and Ryan breaking down why creators are still struggling for ownership, how blockchain tools could fix it, and whether tokenized content is the future.
The internet made creators believe they could turn passion into profit. The reality? Platforms own everything -- your audience, your income, your visibility.
Now, TheCreators.com and BASE use blockchain to change that, giving creators real ownership through tokens and DAOs.
One big idea is tokenizing content -- letting fans buy, trade, or collect pieces of a creator’s work, like stocks or NFTs.
The promise?
No reliance on ads or platform algorithms.
Fans financially support creators and share in their success.
Communities, not corporations, control monetization.
TheCreators.com is launching:
A creator directory → Artists, musicians, and builders connect without platforms taking a cut.
Tokenized IP → Fans invest in creators, like Own The Doge, which turned a meme into a global brand.
ClankerCon → A virtual event on Base where creators and builders collaborate without gatekeepers.
Blockchain still doesn't solve creator discoverability, but it does fix ownership. Instead of chasing views, creators can build sustainable, fan-driven businesses.
Web2 made creators commodities -- Web3 is giving them equity.
The real question is: Will creators make the switch?
Most DAOs are slow, bloated, and stuck in endless debates. Farcastle changes that by transforming Farcaster channels into agile, execution-focused DAOs.
🔹 Micro-DAOs → Small teams with clear missions and deadlines.
🔹 Built into Farcaster → No extra tools, coordination happens in social feeds.
🔹 Smarter Funding → Teams get initial resources, then earn more based on execution.
