I'm pretty sure Yagoo still owns the majority of Cover, and regularly shoots down retarded suggestions during investor meetings. They obviously have problems, but the "going public ruined everything" narrative is misguided.
When a company gets big, mid to high level management cannot just leave shit alone. They need to justify their positions by making changes that usually make things worse rather than better.

It's an inherent flaw of public companies. their need to constantly be growing feeds endless greed and speculation via the shareholders which creates dilemmas where you lack sufficient data to make good choices as either the shareholder or agent of the company. public companies should be banned
They are legally required to work in the best interests of the shareholders. How this is implemented or interpreted is up for debate.

As a past creditor of 2 bankrupted companies, I can assure you that nobody needs a used vtuber model
Administrators don't care. Best case they will take an offer to buy it out, worst case they will just wind it up because it isn't worth their time.

Yeah, still kinda reeling from PixelLink not just cutting the models loose since it was allegedly just health issues. We lost some good ones.

I joked about the CCV but now I'm starting to wonder where all these pricks were when the charity stream was happening.
She should have treated her charity streams as a subathon - donation goals, collabs, high-effort prepped streams, all of that. She didn't. She treated it like a regular week of streams and got a regular week of stream viewers for her trouble.

I get why they wanna sell them, scraping back losses makes sense even if its shit
The court appointed trustee probably has no clue what a vtuber model even is. But if the company lists it as an asset on their balance sheets then they are probably forced to sell it by law

Just saying the prior since this is also a "regular" stream, but I do totally agree with you. She would've killed it if the charity were like the 24hr stream and not just normal (even if gimmick) streams. Instead she lets the opportunity go only to feel inferior to Nimi. :sakanapleasepippa:

It need not be debated as the purpose of the system is what it does and what it does is bad for everyone but the speculators/market manipulators. The number has to go up up up fast. The stock market should be ended, reticule's clan be damned

Thats a good point actually, I'd not thought about it in that sorta way. Good fucking luck getting Pippa to understand that though :whatastory:

The cold-hearted capitalist in me says that the value of an intellectual property is whatever someone is willing to pay for it, so trying their luck and setting an asking price to see if the talent bites makes sense.

Obviously the optics of that aren't great, but there's a reason why it happens.

Surprised they put it so high.

Then again, maybe they just didn't realize how bad vtubers are with money. If they were away, they'd probably sell them off for 50 bucks.

If a company is closing, they probably have a lot of bills to pay too and selling the IP will help cover some of that. Giving away the IP to the talents sounds great and all, but it's very unrealistic in most circumstances.

They might have based it on how much they were making, hell for all we know it was a reasonable price based on how much they had earned in the last few months but women and money do not mix for long.

The things she is saying that are good about vtubers being bigger are not, to me, necessarily good.

For the talent themselves, $10k-$20k isn't that huge of a price compared to its potential long-term value. It's the entire IP being sold which can be exploited for so many potential revenue streams and comes with the pre-established channels and social media platforms etc., as opposed to just the raw assets.

I wonder if Pippa knows she's pretty much describing Chio with that example going by those discord leaks from a while back. I have a hard time feeling bad for her situation after seeing all that
