Tallinn. Crypto affiliate offers — exchanges mostly, some casino, all rev share.
The short version of eight years
2017: made more money than I understood and assumed I was good at this.
2018-2020: found out I was not. Two bear markets, lost most of it.
2021: made it back and then some.
2022-2023: lost half of that to one network that introduced negative carryover and I did not read the contract.
2024-now: boring, diversified, profitable. Rev share only, four networks, nothing over 30% of revenue.
What I can tell you about
Rev share vs CPA on crypto, whale concentration, which contract clauses to walk away from, and getting paid when half the industry pays in tokens.
What I am here for
Traffic. I am good at monetisation and mediocre at acquisition, which has been true for eight years and is the thing I should have fixed in year two.
Lurked long enough to recognise half the usernames in this thread.
Crypto affiliate. Rev share over CPA, every time.
