Follow the money. I would prefer you double your subscription cost rather than take outside money. Keep interests aligned.

Are you suggesting to raise the price and then put portion into treasury? Could hold a vote on that

Worth a vote. I am subscribed because I like your unbiased analysis. While I appreciated your full disclosure, I felt a difference in your analysis with SYN and JPEG. Would hate to see 3rd parties influence your writing.

Agreed. Hard to imagine the same authenticity (the reason I am here) with outside funding - dare I say it goes a bit against the ethos of The Jungle...?

How do you suggest on expanding then?

Target women… ;)

Perhaps it’s semantics but sponsors seems different to me than ‘advertisers’.

How do the big politico Substacks do it? Seems they to be largest in terms of audience…

Same way we're suggesting, we'll poll everyone before deciding.

Unless someone has better ideas saying no from one person is largely meaningless

The first poster at least suggested price increases as an alternative answer

Is your goal to increase jungle treasury holdings? Increase subscribership? Influence crypto projects?

Chuckled at the comp to Bankless. I was a sub for a while then came to realize they had little original, insightful content. Waste of time.

Hi Bull, don't forget about the original clown NFT community when you make it even bigger. Our floor is at 2 ETH now. 💪🏻

I wonder if Hashmask will ever revive. It was the original project that was copied by Bayc but the outcome has been completely different.

Here's my reply-guy opinion:

Build out a business - or partner with a company/entity as "founding influencer".

Basically, the MrBeast model. He had to build own company because other companies struggle to pay 100 mio impressions per video.

Imho something similar can be applied here because BtB audience is something on its own.

Also, sponsoring has similar vibes to working for someone else. No sponsor will be able to pay full value for your audience, otherwise they won't make money on it.

related to the DOP airdrop: how many accounts do you suggest creating? for every 3 new accounts you get a 20% bonus. do you think its worth creating new accounts for several hours to get +100% bonus or more?
