Sports is month to month. Need a more clearer path to break even and some kind of standard agreement with SN before I would outlay the 3M sats. Also will be good to see how external wallets only affect behavior on SN.

I have been able to pay the monthly territory fee from zaps and rewards earned throughout the month. If I didn't have the territory I would probably just zap most of those sats away so for me it's really just a time investment.

3 million SATS is around 160000 INR here in India and its considered way too much to consider for investment without any security against it. I'm a busines person and I won't do it if I don't get enough assurance. Do we get it here on SN?

I think it's roughly half of them.

I don't think there's any other except the ones that @k00b holds.

I was also wondering about the success (or luck rate) of territories... How many territories have there been overall, and what is the % that is still around?

I don't know if I'm wrong, but it sounds like paying for the lifetime option is the most viable option. This logic is put forward in the following way: it is cheaper to buy a 40-roll toilet paper package that could last from a month and a half to two and a half months. Buying 4-roll packages week by week will always be cheaper to buy wholesale than retail. Now another question is, how much does that amount of (3M SATS - $1850 approx at prices of 61.8k as I write) represent for you and another important factor, as with any investment, how long will it take you to recover your 3M to really move into passive income mode. I don't dare to do the math here since I have no idea how much a territory receives monthly in SN

I have been thinking about creating a Spanish-speaking territory. I know that there are many people here who speak Spanish and they will surely appreciate it. I also need to save up a little to see if we can pay month by month.

Yeah, I was wondering if territory owners are "breaking even". If you make money, great, but I'm more concerned about not losing money.

Keep in mind if you pay the 900,000 for a year, you still have another year to gather the next 2 million sats to finish off the payment, since you get pro-rated for what you've already paid.

I’ve been wanting to start and manage a territory as well. One for bitcoin meetups and trip reports. I could provide a lot content to inspire activity in my own territory which would help me regain the sats and time of management. I can’t seem to pin down a nice catchy name that would attract all the attention I’d like however.

Anyways I’ve always known that if I do pull that trigger, I’ll pay the 3M sats. For me there’s a lot of value in instantly having a hard cap on the road to profit ville. If I were to pay month to month for a year and then decide to pay the 3M sats… then the journey of earning 3m sats starts then. With an entire year of paying fees behind me.

I see that you are a man of action. Good luck

I plan on trying to buy my territory today actually. I was trying to do it earlier but was having issues with finding a route for a 3M Sat payment
