The Bottom Line
Fanbase is three things simultaneously:
Creator platform rivaling OnlyFans/Patreon (but better)
Crypto payment system enabling instant, private transactions
Community-owned protocol governed by token holders
This combination has never existed before.
Traditional platforms give you #1 but extract value. Crypto projects promise #2 and #3 but lack products.
Fanbase delivers all three.
