crypto vs content creation, which is more profitable?

[Charles-Tim]

content creating is not that so easy to do, if you go close those successful content creators you realise how expensive and time taking the job is

No work is easy either. But one thing about life is that if you are good in something, people will later know you.

and to create a video that can generate traffic before you get paid also doesn't comes easy that is why you see those content creator ditching out tons of videos because they can't tell which of the videos will  go viral and earn them the highest pay at the end of the month.

Since the content creator has many subscribers, many of them will click on his videos while the platform the person is using will suggest to other people to watch the video which is the reason the number if subscribers the content creator is having will be increasing. Although, some people will unfollow the content creator but if he is good, people that subscribed will be getting more than people that unsubscribe.

Sometimes, it doesn’t matter which is more profitable than the other as, you obviously can’t do both.

You can do both.

This a technical questions which needs patient to deal with. We can't just say content creating is more profitable but content creating will give you instant profit but cryptocurrency investment takes time before your can make profit. And if your invest in cryptocurrency with good amount then there is always a probability that you will make profit at the long run. But not all the content creators can make money from the content.
Therefore I will also support the motion that cryptocurrency is more profitable than content creation base on the fact that, if nobody watch your content then there is no profit from it. Bitcoin investment is not like that.

Patience is key just like you said, nothing good comes easy, it's always going to take some time..But you said content creating gives you instant profit compared to crypto currency investment, I disagree because you can't just wake up and be a content creator, growing a social media account isn't a one month or two months job, it's going to take a very long time, my friends are content creators so I know what I'm talking about, and in the aspect of crypto currency investment have you considered day trading? This doesn't take time to make profit except you are a swing trader

I will go for content creation. Because anyone can invest in bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies of choice so far you have money. If you are a good content creator, you will have money that you can invest in cryptocurrencies. Even if you lose some of the money, your content creation is a job that you can use to earn more money.

Exactly. Crypto Investment is not a job, but content creation is a job that will earn someone a lot of money, and someone can also use money earned from content to invest, and still money will continue coming from content, and my crypto investment will be able to reach the right time to sell, but if I'm a content creator and also a crypto investor, money earned from content can be invested in crypto, and it will go a long way.

Which is more profitable? Content creators or crypto traders/investors.

Let's expand this topic to some extent and check out the difference clearly, do you also include Blockchain and crypto developers into this argument, if so then I think crypto developers and Content creators are not at the same range of getting high paid. The both requires consistency and hard work though but developers profits more than content creators.

A developer can get up to $50k from a successful project where he/she can get involved in more than one project in a month, so let calculate how much a developer can get from building 5 projects in a month,

I don't know how much content creators get from Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube, although, their pay depends on the number of followers and views per content, but how much could they get in a month compared to crypto developers.

A lot of people think that content creation is actually easy, not saying crypto is easy but to become a content creator that gets paid in good amounts you need to grow your social media accounts and this goes beyond paying hackers to boost your account to get more followers because some platforms won't allow it, it has to be step by step journey, this would require a level of consistency, it would take more than a year or two to get the audience you need.. would it take that long to start earning on crypto?? Clearly the answer is no

some days ago, PST Jery eze became the highest ranked Nigerian YouTuber with a groose earning of N7 billion in all-time earning from 2014-2024 which is an interval of 10 years. He was on YouTube right from 2014 but become active from 2019 during the covid while he organized an online praying channel accross all the social media platforms called NSPD.

Only on YouTube, he has about 2.12 million subscribers and at least 1 million view everyday and since he does the online prayers from Monday to Friday every week right from 2019 that I can remember till date,  you can tell the level if consistency it requires. For his own case,  he has build an audience that runs from members of his church to millions of people accross the world that joins him in the morning prayers.  Apart from YouTube, on Facebook he gets 150k view everyday on his live broadcast that has been running for those period of time. It's a big joke to assume that those kind of thing is easy for an average person to easily get if you're not ready to pay the price.

Thier is real money in content creation more than most jobs be it in crypto and most sector but the level of effort it requires is not what you an average person can offer.

Here's a sample of the least view he gets everyday on his live

Making content is not an easy job, though nothing in life is easy. Before you begin making money from content creation, you must ensure that the video you are about to create is high quality and funny, they look for content that has not been created before by anyone to ensure that their followers enjoy what they have created. But, if you look at it, to me, the easiest way to make money in this country is through content makers. If you start making content and a person who wishes to start a crypto investment, I believe a person who creates content will be the first to make money since if you wish to be a content creator, working under someone who has lots of followers will be a simple way to help his boy grow his account. But with crypto trading, even if you are educated by someone who has been on the crypto trip for many years, you will still have to wait for the right time to make a profit, so I believe that content creators make more money than crypto traders.

Since most youths have seen that social media skit makers are cashing out big and living expensive lifestyles, we've noticed a majority of youths creating content up and down some of which are too irrelevant and contribute nothing to the viewers. They just want to get paid and since they want to get the required views and followers before their account is monetized, they are willing to go to any extent just to look for views including showing nudity and spreading false and unverified news just to attract their audience. In the end, some of them luckily get their accounts monetized and earn from it pulling up more crowds into the sector as though it's the only source of wealth in the digital space.

For us at this end, we know that ours isn't as loud as that of content creators and most of us normally enjoy doing things on the low key to avoid too much attention from our financial agencies since it appears as though they have a thing against us. For the traders, we know the risk involved and that it could get too good at some point or get bad at some other time, and then for the long-term investor, we know that our return doesn't come within a short space of time compared to most verified content creators that are currently earning from their page.

Which is more profitable? Content creators or crypto traders/investors.

The internet has revolutionized the way youths live, learn and interact, offering numerous benefits such as earning through content creation. The current trends of the youths flocking to social media content creation in hopes of achieving financial success has become a norm, it's true that content creators have been receiving significant financial rewards but let's also acknowledge the efforts, dedication and luck in achieving such success. Just like @samlucky o said, Grace.

On the other hand crypto trading and investment requires a different set of skills, knowledge and risk tolerance. Both paths have their unique benefits and setbacks so we should be able to know were our passion and interest lies and follow that path. I would say that content creation is more profitable but it's too much work to handle, a content creators could be a low-key crypto investor and still make profit adding to the one they make in content creation but an investor can't do both. The only problem that content creators have and crypto investors doesn't have is, in content creation you put your privacy, your life, your self-esteem on the line but in crypto investment it's all about privacy.

I will go for content creation. Because anyone can invest in bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies of choice so far you have money. If you are a good content creator, you will have money that you can invest in cryptocurrencies. Even if you lose some of the money, your content creation is a job that you can use to earn more money.

Content creation is more profitable than cryptocurrency because it's basically skills and data subscription that is required to start it, which is not much and as long as the content creator is active and have required viewers they'll continue to make money. Unlike cryptocurrency that requires a person to first have money to either invest or trade, besides cryptocurrency are volatile, some might dip and never recover again making the investors to lose their money. Except for a few forums like Bitcointalk, where members can earn money from signature campaigns and some legit airdrops, I don't think that there are other avenues that people can earn money in cryptocurrency without putting in their money first. Someone can earn money from content creation and invest it in a reputable cryptocurrency like Bitcoin for long term returns on investment.

[Bitco55]

The fact that money gotten from content creation can be invested into crypto to make more money already proves that crypto is of course more profitable than content creation. Cause if you have a comfortable stream of income why go into Bitcoin again? Isn't it cause it's an asset while content creation is a source of income?

Please note, that I said asset, meaning long-term investments in cryptocurrency. But even if it's trading that of course requires money too, then I still think it's more profitable than content creation.

You already done justice to this comparison in your previous post where you mentioned patient and I think going further will make the argument void. I don't know what trigger this argument in the first place because crypto and content creation is not of the same category and should not be compared. While one is an investment that involves high level of risks, the other one is about tallent and doest not involved risks.

Crypto has no shortcut and it might even take longer than a year before you begin to reap your fruit. In content creation, majority of content makers don't start from the scratch to build the accounts on the platform they're using, they buy it. Moreover, building social media accounts is not as difficult as it was before especially when you are good in what you do. Sadly, we don't have sensible content creators again; what we have now is irrelevant creators.

If we are to talk about which one is more profitable, we are first of all going to specify whether it is sustainable profit or short-term profit. Moreover, the profit depends on how good the person involved is, not by the field you belong.

Therefore I will also support the motion that cryptocurrency is more profitable than content creation base on the fact that, if nobody watch your content then there is no profit from it. Bitcoin investment is not like that.

Both of them are not easy because content you need to be a fast thinker so that you will have stories to come up with it will be something the audience will like, because getting followers is also very stressful so, and when it comes to crypto you need to be fully prepared because you will even need finance to invest in crypto both of them have their advantages and disadvantages, both are profitable and base on the kind of money they are making majority of them are also doing crypto so they are also involved, doing the two is also a good idea if you can actually act. It's a thing of joy when you are doing exactly what you have interest in and you are making money from it.

Patience is key just like you said, nothing good comes easy, it's always going to take some time..But you said content creating gives you instant profit compared to crypto currency investment, I disagree because you can't just wake up and be a content creator, growing a social media account isn't a one month or two months job, it's going to take a very long time, my friends are content creators so I know what I'm talking about, and in the aspect of crypto currency investment have you considered day trading?

You need patience in both crypto and content creation because for content creation you have to follow your idea step by step and crpto have a particular steps you must follow on like content creation that your idea will determine the kind of step you will take, the only instant profit you will get from content creation will only happen when you have followers already, and you are getting a lot of deals but when you don't have deals then it might also take a longer period for you to start making money, but when you start making money then getting money their is faster than that of crypto. Their is a lot of things when it comes to content creation it is also very competitive compare you invest without stress, they both have their good and bad side.

These are two different aspects of making legit Money, For me I will stay with Bitcoin because of the following reasons.

Bitcoin when investing in long term has the potential for high returns, and investing in Bitcoin is not time consuming, unlike content creation which is time consuming and labour intensive, you are to be constantly dropping new content to keep your incoming flowing, and most times monetisation strategies may change, Bitcoin just invest and keep up with the latest updates and get your profits,

As Nigerians we all know Blord as an investor in Bitcoin, he is not the most successful Bitcoin investor in Nigeria but he is worth over $5m, which content creator stands close to him when it comes to wealth, Mark angel is the most successful content creator in Nigeria with the networth of about $3m, so you see Bitcoin is way above content creation when it comes to maximising profit.

I stand to be corrected.

I will choose content creation millions of times over cryptocurrency.

A successful content creation is way better than crypto investments, needless to say, you can create your content, earn money from it and invest it in cryptocurrency. Once you have the needed resources in content creation and can build your audience, then the job is done. You will only need to continue to furnish your audience with quality content to make them stay which is not a big deal to any serious and creative content creator.

But I can't say the same about crypto investment, it is risky and no one's money is guaranteed.

[Oshio-man]

If u look at d two very well, u will no dat content creator involve money and crypto investment involve money too, but it will be good u focus on d one u no very well because if u are not good on social media and u chose to b content creator, it will b difficult for u to mak profit dat will mak u happy. Since money is involved in d two before u can mak profit, I will prefer crypto investment I understand very well, and I no dat if I hold crypto like 5 years, it will give me plenty profits than someone dat is doing content creator because it use to tak dem a long years to gather followers before dey can start making small profit from the content creator.

[Su-asa]

I will go for content creation. Because anyone can invest in bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies of choice so far you have money. If you are a good content creator, you will have money that you can invest in cryptocurrencies. Even if you lose some of the money, your content creation is a job that you can use to earn more money.

Are you going for content creation just because anyone can invest in cryptocurrencies, a lot of people don't know how difficult it is to create content, been a content creator requires a lot of start up capital more than crypto investment or trading.there are lots of things you need to spend on as a creator in order for your contents not to look basic.growing social media platforms is not a day job this might take more than a year perhaps even more to get the audience you need to promote whatever it is you are doing

Actually it depends on your choice, but one thing you should know about this content creation is that you will need to work very hard before you get paid, secondly you will never cease in creating a content so as to be able to meet up your Target every week.

However did you know what it takes to be a good content creator? You think is easy to meet up with those criteria that is required? Perhaps this will cost you a huge amount of money before you could build your page, except you keep striving so as to meet those criteria to enable your account to be monetized, definitely this will take up to 10 years if I'm not mistaken reason is because I know what it takes before you could meet up with those criteria.
