Our first growth hack worked.
Quick context: we've built a creator-payments platform @BuildWithGrove. Think Linktree, but with paid messaging and paid content built in.
Two weeks ago, we started pre-registering creators on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and X. People with 25k-250k followers who never asked to join. We signed them up, emailed them, then tipped their content for a couple days. $0.01 to $0.10 per tip.
Today, one of them (a creator with ~60k followers on X) posted a screenshot of our platform asking their audience what this platform even is.
My partner, @fredt_io, jumped in, answered their questions, and converted them to a user.
Total cost of that acquisition: less than $1.00.
You don't need to wait for creators to find you. Go find them, show them something real, and let curiosity do the rest.
Join thousands of others who are already getting paid for their content on X: grove.city

Getting tipped should be simple, instant, and borderless.
Excited to see what @BuildWithGrove is building, making it easier for creators, freelancers, and service workers to receive tips anywhere in the world 🌍
The future of payments is frictionless, global, and creator-first.

Been using @BuildWithGrove for a bit lately, built by the Pocket Network founders.
On the website, connect your socials, X, YouTube, Twitch and more, and get tipped directly wherever you post. OAuth verification across 12+ platforms, fans know it's you.
“Tip to Talk” lets you price your DMs, so if someone wants your attention, they pay for it. Might keep mine at 42 cents, for now.
You keep 90% of every tip, youtube takes ~30%, twitch ~50%. Paid in USDC.
There's also a 2% referral on anyone you bring in, and more monetization coming.
Recently they added a live feed showing tips happening in real time, nice way to see who’s active.

We built a feature into @BuildWithGrove that I’ve wanted for years: getting paid to receive email.
I get a lot of inbound. Some of it is valuable. A lot of it is noise. Like most people, I ignore too much of it.
I’m also part of the problem. I do cold outreach too.
So we built a simple fix: set a price for inbound, share your profile, and let people pay to message you when they actually want your attention.
This is part of a bigger idea: a wallet-first, agent-friendly profile for the internet 🌿
If you sign up and send me a paid message, I’ll reply 🤝

@kleffew94 Check out what we've been cooking @BuildWithGrove.
It's a wallet-first agent-friendly Linktree 🌿

You can put a paywall in front of people messaging you.
Agents have a CLI and skills to do the same thing.

The ad model breaks the moment agents do the browsing.
Creators who rely on impressions are already losing. The ones who built a direct payment relationship won't notice.
This is why we built @BuildWithGrove.
We help you own the transaction so you don't end up ownin nothing.

Great @CoinbaseDev case study!
Ever wonder how long it takes to round-trip between TradFi and DeFi?
If so, here’s a 53-second video showing the future of finance. ⏱️
It’s the backbone technology @BuildWithGrove uses to ensure that high quality earns what it deserves.

Micropayments as an attribution layer could reshape how value flows on the open web.
Rewarding quality content directly feels like a sustainable step forward for creators.
#Grove
You've probably heard us talk about "Tipping" recently.
We're building an attribution layer. It uses micropayments.
Tipping is just the tip of the iceberg 🗻
Our goal is to understand the quality of content on the open web 👨🔬
Our focus is on creator revenue, not creator coins 🧑🎨
Our mission is to make sure high-quality content earns high-quality rewards 💰
Our team spent years in the web3 space. We know what the technology is capable of, and where the tradeoffs lie.
No gimmicks. No memes. No zero-sum games.
Real revenue. Real value. Real content.
It's early, and we have a lot planned. If 🫵 are reading this and interested in getting involved, start by signing up or reaching out to the team: grove.city 🌿

Fwiw, working with @base using @CoinbaseDev has been a dream.
The way I personally see it, it's not just about the @baseapp or $COIN.
It's enabling us to build a platform without lock-in, without speculation.
Just stablecoins, on a stable platform, focused on value add to creators, without creator coins.
