FlipToons - WebComic Platform Monetized with Coil Research

Definition of Terms comic - any comics including but not limited to manga, manhwa,web toon episode - in web toons, an episode is a unit of the story(similar to chapters in manga but usually shorter) Research & Background Based on Coil’s payout rate of 0.36$ per hour and a 4.5$ cap to be paid out to creators, the user would stream payment for 12.5 hours before the user’s wallet is depleted. After that, the wallet would stream infinitesimal(almost zero) payments distributed over the remaining time in the month (Spivak, 2020). While this may prove profitable for the creators in the first 12.5 hours, this becomes problematic when the usage time goes beyond that as server resources will continue to be spent whilst receiving negligibly small payments. (Only applies to creators that also serve their own content). In order to use Coil’s monetization model profitably, one must ensure that their content is consumed only up to 12.5 hours per month while maintaining regular customer engagement. Thus, the ideal customer is one that consumes content daily and streams payment at about 25 minutes per day (12.5 hours/ 30 days = 25 min/day). This assures a virtually lossless operation and, at the same time, regular customer engagement. Based on this ideal customer usage, personal interest and experience it was hypothesized that web comics would be a great fit for this user behaviour. Preliminary research was done to attempt to prove this hypothesis. A survey was done to profile the usage of readers on one of the top web comic sites to date, webtoons.com. The survey included the following questions:
