At #[0], we think it’s important for relays to have sustainable long-term business models.

Today we’re debuting Kollider’s paid relay— which operates on a monthly subscription model.

You pay to get in, and then each month we’ll send you a DM with an invoice to pay the subscription.

A lot of existing relays require a one-time admission fee, mostly to prevent spam. But this model is likely unsustainable in the long-run.

We like the subscription model because it will allow us to invest in the infrastructure and services needed to continue offering a best-in-class relay over the long term. We’re looking forward to seeing other paid relay models emerge, too.

I totally understand why this works best for everybody. However, my insignificant feedback is that many people are getting subscription fatigue. I know I am for sure. FWIW.

I get that for sure. The nice thing about this model is that it’s opt-in every single month. You have to pay the invoice, so it’s very easy to cancel if you aren’t getting value from it.
