~Econ only costs 100 sats for a post, but it's also the one territory I know of that crowdfunds.
Thatโ€™s right. There are a handful of us paying the the shortfall every month.

it is a great initiative and look's like is the only territory doing so. @Jeff strategized a lot to make it happen, and I think it would be useful for other territory owners to try the same approach.
Atm it's possible to support only the reward pool, it wouldn't be nice to have a way to directly support territories too?
@Public_N_M_E would you consider testing the same approach?
reply
It's certainly something I'm considering, the difficulty is finding time to ensure I'm available to interact with a crowdfund.
Effectively every single one of my daily posts and my various weeklies should act as a crowdfund if they were to be zapped proportionate to comments and engagement ๐Ÿ˜‰

It's suggestive of what will be possible over time. Those guys are innovators, but as SN grows, and there's non-trivial money / influence to be had by effective territory management, I think you'll see more "overlays" of this kind, groups of people specializing in different aspects of territory mgmt. @siggy47 is another example of innovation in territory-running.
Things that don't seem viable now will likely be later.

Zap the owner? Unless you are looking for credit, this is the way.
reply
That's true, but doing so you'll never know if the funds will be re-invested in the territory or not.
I also notice that most territory owners are just sitting back, maybe watching, maybe just forgot about SN. Anyway, just thinking that potentially, territories should have a dedicated wallet that the owner (and other contributors could) have access to.
reply
Sitting back, nah you gotta invest your time if you want to succeed, spend some time in ~Music and ~Stacker_Sports ~Agora is another. Very very active owners.
reply
I love this idea. At the end of the month, if folks have contributed, say, 10K sats to the wallet, the owner gets billed 90K.
Unless they're yearlong or lifetime territories, I can't imagine many active territories have owners that have really abandoned them, since that monthly bill would keep coming up.

My mistake, apologies, there was a territory that made it to profitability, but their posting fees were about 1500. But the name escapes me.
reply
Man, now I'm curious about which one. I know ~podcasts charged 1K (which is pretty much why I never posted there, in addition to the fact that most podcasts I want to share make sense in specific territories), but it looks like it's also archived.
reply
I think ~builders was profitable, but I'm pretty sure it's always been at 1000 sats
reply
Maybe it was ~builders at 1000???? ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค” My memory of that post about profitability is sketchy. So it could be this.
