What scale is this revenue? I find it hard to imagine that subscription revenue could hold a candle to the income already generated by "top" traders. Do you have traders already working with you that have expressed interest in being followed via this product?

I know of several traders in various online communities, outside of our platform, who are already successfully earning tens of thousands of dollars per month by promoting themselves on Discord and Telegram servers.

It's this demonstrated success and the enthusiastic interest from traders that inspired the creation of this platform. We have a growing waitlist of traders who are eager to leverage our platform as a secondary income source.

Now I'm even more confused. Promoting oneself on discord doesn't bring direct revenue. How is that turning into 10s of thousands a month?

Are you sure they are interested in your platform for its revenue, and not as a marketing tool?

What I meant to say was "they run their own signals servers on platforms like discords".

There is more interest from individuals without an audience on our waitlist than ones already with servers that are already making money.

Still confused. Running a signals server is revenue? Are people paying them for access to the tune of 10s of thousands a month? If not, this sounds sketchy again - smells like a mechanism for pump & dump schemes.

I totally get your disbelief, but it's a real thing! Experienced traders share their strategies and ideas online and many are making bank! Whether their trades are successful or not is a different question - that's why I'm creating my platform as a way to verify traders' performance before joining their paid community.

I pay $1500 a month for a discord room and it has 4500 people in the basic level. The top level is $10,000

Wow, that sounds like quite an investment for a Discord room! I'd love for you to explore our platform as well. Send me a message on Twitter (@afrahtweets), and I'll be happy to provide you with an opportunity to try out our platform and see how it compares to your current Discord experience
