Creator Cuts Incentivises Creating and Holding
Creator Cuts empowers its content creators through a unique community engagement model, allowing the expanding Chingari community to connect with their favourite creators by owning a unique work made by them.
The new model benefits both artist and holder – while the artist gets a fee for their work, vNFT holders will get 10% of the creator’s daily revenue on the Chingari app, paid in the platform’s GARI tokens. This incentivises buyers to hold their vNFTS and video creators to get out there and grow their fanbase.
Chingari Benefited from India TikTok Ban
Sumit Ghosh, Co-founder and CEO of Chingari, explained in a press release announcing Creator Cuts that enabling creators to engage effectively with the community has been the “cornerstone” of Chingari’s success since its inception, adding that he and his team were “wholly committed to its growth and democratisation across the spectrum.”
Chingari claims to be the world’s fastest-growing on-chain social app, with over 130 million registered users. It was founded in 2018 to be a Tiktok rival and experienced a huge boom when TikTok was banned in India in April.
