As far as I know there are already:

  1. E-commerce market = XMRBazaar
  2. Freelance market = monero.jobs
  3. Donation and Stream = Xmrchat

But i still didn't see a subscription service that can become alternative to Patreon. What make Patreon interesting is that you can make a tiered service for your supporter and plus you can give exclusive content that only the member can access. Does anyone know such service exist within the Monero community?

UPDATE:
Because there is few information available on the service with such concept thus born XMRStars, a membership platform for people that want to monetize their content made by @nolan.

If you like with the vision of the project, consider supporting it through: https://xmrchat.com/openfans

Hey everyone, sorry I been out a while but I am back, and it's good to be back, missed all things here.
I used to reply couple weeks ago but looks like didn't work my reply here, i am a bug magnet lol.

First thing, I wanna announce that I created a pre-beta demo for xmrstars, you can create accounts (fans or creators) without any moderation required. Ofc it has some limitations but I believe everyone deserve some real time updates on here, so please check it out, if you see any bugs/suggestion or you can hack it, feel free to reach me out.

Note: It's on mainnet, all the payments will work, so be careful. Also, just because it's demo, I limited the file upload from 5GB to 500MB, so it will not be gonna be same whenever we are on beta/alpha version. (VPS has limited resources, 8gb ram, 256gb ssd, 4cpu and 2.5g network port, already monero node and other things used 100gb+ storage :) )

Now, let me try to answer some question on thread. There are some discussion about payment fee, after thinking long time, I decided to let this go. Every creator deserves 100% what they getting from fans. There is no platform fee, which is very bad idea for business wise but I think community can donate the cost of project in future, which I am thankful about that.

@FiatDemise thank you <3 yes please, it would be great if you guys can change the username :) btw good luck with xmrpod project, i will check it out soon.

@Otherfren i will check it out soon, thank you for building for community <3

Other than that, Thank you for all the donations on here and xmrchat <3, I will try to update more about everything as long as I am getting better. Please let me know if you find any bugs on this development build, I hope most of you guys like the UI/UX and also features.

Take care yourself everyone <3
