Our thesis: if your model crush says you can join her project by buying 1,000 Thirstcoin (present market value ≈ $1) to see her new editorial — there’s a chance you're gonna buy the Thirstcoin.
And if she has millions of followers, the effects could be profound.
Those same 1,000 Thirstcoin unlock her friends’ shoots and every future one, if you hold them.
@EddyXBT Why do you think the Casino makes you gamble with chips instead of cash? It's a lot easier to throw a bunch of monopoly money down on the table than real money. They will even provide you a free cocktail while you're doing it.
I’m open to discussing it with you — as long as the tone stays respectful, and you’re willing to recognize if any assumptions about our intentions turn out to be mistaken.
We see an opportunity to tokenize the work we’ve been creating for years as models and photographers.
What does “tokenizing our work” mean?
It means giving access to the content and lifestyle brand we’re building. One example: we’ve created a digital magazine with the vibe of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit in the ’90s. There’s no paywall, no ads, no subscriptions — but you do have to hold a few dollars’ worth of Thirstcoin to view it.
Or imagine a private influencer event — free to attend, but only for Thirstcoin whales.
A 1% buy/sell fee funds and develops these activities. We already have millions of Web2 fans; this is simply a fun, transparent way to connect with them.
We’re not selling dreams of wealth — we’re building a Web3 version of what Playboy once was: a magazine, a brand, a lifestyle.
The technology to do this was easy for us to deploy a token that we could integrate with our existing workflow as creators. I think other brands should and will start to do the same.
