Substrat.io - A Patreon alternative built on Hive
I've built substrat.io, a Patreon-style platform that runs on the Hive blockchain. It lets creators publish gated content behind subscriptions, tips, and paywalls. The content is encrypted so only your subscribers can access it through Substrat.
It's currently in public beta. If you're a creator on Hive - artist, writer, podcaster, video maker - I want you to try it out. The goal is to give creators a way to monetize directly from their audience instead of relying on post rewards and curation.
Still working out the kinks, so feedback is welcome. Give it a shot - head to substrat.io and let me know what you think.
