I love content creation, I've been doing it for years and I'm always on the lookout for new opportunities when they arise! Whether it's for new audience reach, monetization, or fun experiments, I'm always down to try new creative stuff!
These days I'm experimenting with Zora.co, a decentralized protocol and marketplace focused on on-chain media and NFTs, and it's been a lot of fun so far! I'm not new to Zora. I've actually been using it for a good 2 years to both create and collect digital art. But after taking a few months off, I realized they launched a super cool feature...
Creator Coins š„®
And I launched mine! I wasnāt expecting Iād ever say this but... $Knowhow92 is LIVE š¤£

Cool, but what's Creator Coins?
Think of them as your own digital fan token on Zora! Your profile becomes a coin (like $Knowhow92) that people can buy and trade. Every time you post something on Zora (video, photo, meme), it gets linked to your creator coin. That means when people collect your posts, the demand for your coin grows.
The more people engage with your content, the more your creator coin can gain value. Half of the coin supply is reserved for the creator and unlocks slowly over time (5 years), so the more creators create and engage, the more they earn the trust of their fanbase and benefit. Also, creators earn a small trading fee from every trade, which is cool too!
It's what the Zora Team likes to call the āCreator Economyā
Why Launch a Creator Coin?
I actually find this Creator Coin experiment a really cool way to grow my Web3 branding while monetizing my content more and rewarding my fans at the same time!
As a die-hard Web3 content creator for over 7 years, Iām here to stay. And those who follow my journey already know that. Having my own token tied to how well I do in the Web3 economy is a great motivation to keep pushing, evolve my skills, and create better content, cause now there are people hodling my coin, backing me, and basically ābettingā on me!
Sure, Iām not a huge creator or a big name in the Web3 space, but I do believe what I do (building @skatehive and @epirus.dao, onboarding shredders, creating content) brings value and fun to the blockchain ecosystem. A token tied to my personal growth just makes sense in my head!
I mean, I already bought a few Creator Coins from builders I believe in and I consider myself a builder too. There are definitely more people out there who think like me, so this feels like a solid opportunity for every creator to tokenize their actions and get some extra support and reach from like-minded people!
My Creator Coin Plan
I just started my Zora Creator Coin journey, so I need to test and see what works and what doesn't, but one thing's for sure... I'm bringing more eyes to Hive through Zora!
The current plan is to create 1ā3 short skate video teasers on Zora every week, leading to my full skateboarding videos on Skatehive.app! Skateboarding is cool, and I believe Zora users will enjoy my style and want to check out the full edits, bringing more traffic to Skatehive (and Hive overall).
I already posted my first teaser a couple hours ago and included the Skatehive post link in the description! Letās see how it goes!
And yo, here's the link if you want to mint an edition š
Minting costs almost nothing, just a few cents worth of Base ETH (gas fees)! Just log in to Zora.co, mint my post, instantly receive $knowhow92 tokens and support my Web3 skateboarding journey!in
Creator Economy is an Ongoing Experiment
The Creator Coin thing might end up being worth it or not, only time will tell! Everything in Web3 is experimental anyway. Whatās trending today might not exist in two years.
One thingās for sure though! Platforms like Zora and features like Creator Coins open creative, community-driven, and monetizable paths that didnāt exist in Web2.
No middlemen and gatekeepers. Just pure creator-to-fanbase connection. And it feels good!
Oh, and one last thing...
