>How the fuck does Kson make 100k a month
kek, she doesn't make 100k per month for a LOOOOOOONG time, she would have to be moving about 200k gross per month in merch and sponsorship to make for the difference in SC revenue she lost recently

Anon, her revenue reclined, her audience numbers reclined and her only saving grace, that she was independent and didn't have to revenue share with a company went up in smokes because of the difficulties she was facing trying to run a one person company on her own, having to give VShojo rights to explore her character for merch in return for help running her books and tech.

I'll extrapolate from superchat to merch because both seems to correlate with size of audience: kson made more money on superchat in the 4 months after her graduation than in the combined months after that, and the recline doesn't seem to have gotten less steep.
She also made more money in the *worst* months of her Hololive stay as Coco (Nov 2020 to May 2021) than in her whole indie and vshojo tenure.

Maybe you are clutching to the usual cope
>y-you can survive comfortably on 500 views on average
but the topic here is the greatness that existed in Coco, and the mediocrity that exists in present day kson.

>If she and Cover ever have a disagreement that leads to her leaving then everything she built is gone
Anon, she makes it back, *right now*, every penny she puts in.
Who the fuck cares about the future when she reaps the reward RIGHT NOW?

I'll use kson as an example: she made more money during the time she was THE MOST dissatisfied with Cover
>906,178 USD : November 2020 to April 2021
than in her lifetime as kson
>874,500 USD : lifetime

Let that sink in: in the period Coco was THE MOST NERFED by rules and the chink spam she made more money than in her lifetime of talent freedom.
It's a no brainer that they reap the rewards IMMEDIATELY and should care more about keeping the gravy train running than about an eventual departure for worse pastures

>Money is still guaranteed for her and coco at least,
Not to the same level. Here is kson superchat revenue from August 2021 to July 2022 (including today).

It could be claimed that she's moving to merch too but she herself disclosed the problems she had on that front, so it is unlikely that she's making up for it with merch.
