• Creators today rely on centralized platforms like YouTube, Patreon, Instagram, and Twitch to share content and monetize their work. • These platforms control creator visibility through algorithms, take significant commission fees, and can remove or restrict accounts, leaving creators with little control. • Even after building a strong community, creators do not actually own their audience — followers, engagement data, and monetization tools are controlled by the platform. • Monetization options are also limited and platform-dependent, making it difficult for creators to receive direct support from their audience. • There is a need for a system where creators can publish content, receive tips, and offer premium access while maintaining true ownership of their audience and revenue. • A decentralized solution using blockchain can enable transparent creator monetization, audience ownership, and direct creator–fan interaction without intermediaries.
