Creator payouts are infrastructure. When a platform changes minimums or adds KYC steps, cash flow moves in weeks—not days. This memo tracks signals worth calendar reminders: chargeback windows, reserve holds, cross-border fees, and form deadlines that trip people at tax time.

How we report

We verify with primary sources—help pages, emails to creators, SEC filings when public. Screenshots with dates help; unsourced Discord rumors do not.

Adult creators often face higher deplatforming risk than mainstream peers. Policy news is survival information, not gossip—name what changed, who it affects, and what still sits unclear in the fine print.

Takeaway

Industry coverage should read like a trade publication: fast, sourced, unsensational. Follow the money and the paperwork.
