Community Update

gFam for gFam.live shares monthly report

Hi everyone!

We've disabled our Coil.com related code but all our Web Monetization is still active and ready for whatever the future brings in this space. Really excited to see what comes from Web Monetization development (add yourself to the waitlist!).

In the meantime, we've changed our methodology and we're proud to report that we're now tipping creators 100% of the advertising revenue from gFam.live based on their contributions to both traffic and community.

If you think you should be paid fairly for your efforts, then gFam.live is the place for you.

Here is the latest progress report...

Imagine having access to a platform that serves as a guide to the world of Web Monetization. freeCodeCamp, a previous grantee of the Interledger Foundation, offered training on different monetization strategies but specifically on how to make money from your website without having to reply on third party advertisers or selling your users data.

Ania Kubow, through this course, provided insights on what Web Monetization is and how it can possibly work.

Here is freeCampCodeCamp's report with details for review.
