The concept of rewarding creators for original work hits the right nerve. Consider this: producing high-quality content demands serious time investment. Someone churning out original videos over 30 weeks, dedicating 10 hours per production cycle, pours hundreds of hours into the craft. Yet current payout models often fail to reflect that effort. The economics don't quite add up—creators bear the full cost (equipment, software, time) while compensation barely covers expenses. Sure, any payout beats nothing, and every reward feels meaningful. But there's a gap between effort invested and rewards received. For the creator economy to truly thrive in Web3, the incentive structure needs recalibration. Original content should command better compensation that actually acknowledges the work behind it. When creators' time and resources are properly valued, we'll see more quality content flowing into the ecosystem.

Exactly right, I'm in the same situation now... Spent so much time refining content, but the income doesn't match at all, all the money for equipment and software subscriptions is wasted.

That's why we need Web3 to reshape the creative economy. The current model is really outrageous; creators are giving their work for free.

Honestly, the current situation for creators is really awkward. After investing hundreds of hours, the earnings still aren't enough to buy a good set of equipment... In Web3, we need to get the incentive mechanism right; otherwise, we will never attract genuinely dedicated content creators. If this gap isn't bridged, the entire ecosystem will remain superficial.

30 weeks, 300 hours of hard-earned money, and the compensation received doesn't even cover the costs... According to database data, this is the true state of the current creator economy. Will it eventually succeed? Or will it go bankrupt?

Creators in Web3 have been kept in the dark for so long, and now someone has finally spoken out... 300 hours of effort for a meager payoff, who can stand it?
