My favorite options for Twitter to make money are
* Early access to tweets -- send an API call with Elon Musk's latest tweets 1000ms before they are public to algorithmic traders for $1M/month
* Blue checkmark next to profile pictures that OpenSea verifies you own
- rp1 5y agoHow would the second idea make money?
- mherdeg 5y agoMaybe only some images get flagged with the metadata that say that they work with Twitter, and OpenSea pays Twitter a 10% cut of any works-with-Twitter image rights they sell?
- detaro 5y agomake it only available to accounts that pay for it. Could work with that crowd. (or make it a paid thing on the seller side, pay to opt an offered series of pieces in). But probably overall not that much money to be had.
- everly 5y agoIf a user has already spent money purchasing an NFT that they want to use as their profile picture, they will almost certainly spend a bit more for proof of ownership.
- cblconfederate 5y agoElon would then instanly cease twitting on order not to alienate his fanbase.
- notreallyserio 5y agoOr undercut Twitter by selling folks access to his tweets 2000ms before they hit the API. His fanbase would eat that up.
- kwertyoowiyop 5y agoHow about: Elon’s tweets get sent to Teslas 5 seconds before Twitter shows them.
- kbelder 5y agoIn an ideal world, Elon's tweets would be sent to Elon's lawyers 24 hours before Twitter shows them.
- cblconfederate 5y agoHow about: Sent only on tesla dash screens
