This looks really cool. I spend a lot of time on YouTube and most of the more popular YouTubers eventually start selling t-shirts or some kind merchandise through sites like Shopify or CafePress. The "pay what you want" option and fan spending leaderboard are interesting features. But at the core, it still looks like another shop creator site. So what makes FanHero different? Is it purely a marketing play to appeal to sellers with a fanbase?

Thanks for the thoughts, founder of FanHero here. A merch store is just the beginning, it was the most easy-to-understand value proposition for a lot of YouTubers but our bigger goal is to disrupt the monetization tools that old Hollywood has held a tight grip on (merch, promotions, sponsors, etc.)

We intend for this to act more like a fan club in the future closing the gap between creator and fan even closer.
