is extreme. There are some insanely high value crypto rooms, stacked with founders & thought leaders, better than a $4000/ticket conference panel, yet minimally attended.
2/4 On the other end you have a basket of ultra slimy MLM, bad investment advice, terrible relationship advice, poorly moderated channels that remind you of that class you always skipped because the teacher always let the people who never studied dominate the lesson with dumb Q's
could benefit from some kind of moderator training/onboarding but maybe the better mods will naturally rise to the top over time. Question screening may eventually be needed as groups are training people to use CH speaking opportunities to market themselves.
has a lot of potential but I don't think it's competition for podcasts. It's potentially competition for conferences, radio and classrooms. It's advantage is the timeliness of the discussion, ad hoc participation, ease of adding and removing participants.
So much this! The lack of skilled moderation overshadows some amazing rooms. Akin to the pricey conference tickets you mentioned, the good panels start and end with the moderator.
