Gumroad faces backlash over alleged NFT ambitions |

Gumroad faces backlash over alleged NFT ambitionsJust as many of the ugliest online fights begin these days Brian quot Box quot Brown an Eisner winning illustrator and comic artist sent a seemingly innocuous tweet It read in part quot my former regular freelance employer has let me know they ll be Embracing NFTs so we had to part ways quot The then unnamed business Gumroad shot back the next day with a now pinned response denying it had plans to enter the controversial crypto collecting space and has since attacked detractors from its corporate account provided conflicting information and alienated a growing portion of the artist community it serves How did it get so bad Gumroad for the unfamiliar is a digital goods sales platform which hosts anything from art to ebooks to self help courses It was built in by then year old CEO Sahil Lavinglia who is perhaps the only consistent figure within the company Following a period of growth Lavinglia had to lay off staff in after failing to raise more money The company survived but as it is presently structured Gumroad is something of an anomaly The number of full time employees according to one the CEO s blog posts is quot none Not even me quot preferring to maintain a contractor workforce It also espouses a version of radical transparency choosing to make its product roadmap and board meetings public nbsp The image of an all remote workplace free from deadlines or meetings belies a somewhat haphazard business Some former workers seemingly signed no contracts beyond basic tax forms Some contract work was compensated through Venmo At least one of the contracts signed by Brown related to royalties and IP rights for book illustrations listed one Kun Wu Yu as the primary party and the address as what appears to be a cancer research center in Taiwan When asked about this he first glibly replied that quot cancer research is an important cause quot and later stated he didn t recall the contract To say Lavinglia is not an especially careful founder might be an understatement According to a former contractor who we granted anonymity for fear of retaliation quot it s not the ideal work culture it appears to be quot Brown by all indications was among the permalancers filling out the ranks of Gumroad and a busy one at that quot There was never a time in the last two years where it even slowed down quot he told Engadget from the quot plus hours per week quot he billed which he estimates became a quot large portion of my daily work quot and contributed around to his monthly income Then in January he alleges Lavingia ceased communication In years of freelancing he said quot I never experienced a situation where a regular gig for that long suddenly just disappeared without even an email being like we re gonna let you go you know what I mean quot He believes he was no longer assigned work because of his refusal to get involved with the company s seeming NFT ambitions nbsp Once the differences in opinion between Lavinglia and Brown became open hostilities that penchant for transparency turned into a cudgel Both parties began posting screenshots from the company Slack something which Brown claims to have since been removed from which reflect uncharitably ーthough Gumroad has since deleted many of these tweets nbsp Not true Just that it s something we are exploring as all tech companies should with new technologies This is the entirety of the conversation pic twitter com oXnhFhGyHoーSahil Lavingia shl February In one after Gumroad had ghosted him Brown asks if there s any available illustration work to which Lavinglia states quot the one idea I have is an NFT project unfortunately quot ーa possible commission to help make generative art characters quot It sounds like you need someone who is into NFTs from here on out quot Brown says quot Yep probably quot Lavinglia responds nbsp Lacking here is the context that the subject of NFTs had according to Brown come up repeatedly for the past six months Each time Brown refused though some more tactfully than others In another tweeted screenshot dating to September Lavinglia pitches NFTs as an options and Brown demurs by claimed involvement in such a scheme would cause his readership to quot cancel quot him nbsp The aforementioned anonymous former contractor told Engadget that quot my understanding is that Gumroad was going to get into NFTs at some point in quot Gumroad has been in the midst of a site redesign for which it appears to have retained the services of high powered brand manager and former Google design director Karin Soukup in an email introducing Soukup to Brown Lavinglia sent an email last October with the subject quot Illustrations for Gumroad rebrand NFTs quot When asked via Twitter DM Lavinglia wrote quot Yeah don t recall But the parens and seem pretty clear quot nbsp In his personal capacity Lavinglia has been a minor booster for NFTs and crypto generally He minted an NFT of his Twitter avatar and sold it on OpenSea seemingly to Unacademy founder Guarav Munjal for the equivalent of around USD ーand pledging to split the proceeds between himself and the artist his own wife quot NFT ownership is much more accessible than equity ownership quot he tweeted last September a statement only made stranger by the knowledge that Gumroad is itself financed in part by equity crowdfunding nbsp nbsp It s unclear how any of these screenshots lend credence to Lavinglia s position that the company is not pursuing NFTs conversely it seems evident that had Brown agreed to the project Gumroad most likely would be entering the crypto space On his personal account he attempted to make a distinction between quot doing an NFT collection quot and quot pivoting to NFTs quot ーlater stating quot we may do an NFT collection in the future but no plans quot While an abundance of evidence suggests Gumroad is not being entirely transparent about the degree to which it s investing in some sort of NFT play it s also not entirely clear digital tulip mania is to blame for Brown s loss of a steady gig According to the same anonymous former contractor there have been several similar cases in recent months quot Most of the marketing team got let go recently and it came as a surprise to all of us quot they wrote Others confirmed they were no longer working for Gumroad but declined to go into detail as to the nature of their departures It s unclear why the company many be thinning its ranks yet again and Lavinglia declined to comment on the matter Gumroad s jobs page states that the company is in a hiring freeze until April nbsp Employees aren t the only ones leaving Gumroad ーor at least trying to Some of those who abhor NFTs as well as bystanders who felt the company s public spat with Brown was inappropriate have pledged to leave the platform However a number of them ーincluding Brown ーfound themselves unable to delete their accounts quot We found the bug around deletion and are working to fix it now The issue is that these users all have made money with Gumroad but haven t been paid out yet due to not connecting a bank account for example quot Lavinglia told Engadget quot working to allow them to delete if they wish to anyway quot The bug seems to be impacting at least one creator with no outstanding monetary balance on the platform nbsp Lavinglia has been about as tactful with irate users of his site as he has with his former illustrator ーat one point and in apparent contravention of California privacy laws he cross referenced an account s email address against the site s user information quot Never used Gumroad never going to quot Jacob van Loon tweeted Gumroad replied quot According to your bio s email address you already have quot The response was hastily deleted Van Loon maintains that no such account was ever created Backlash against crypto has been a recent source of strife for a number of companies Creators of various stripes were incensed to learn Kickstarter was a drifting into blockchain technologies comic artist Spike Trotman to recently launched her own crowdfunding initiative in order to avoid involvement in the crypto space Chat app Discord walked back plans to NFT and crypto integration plans last November following user backlash while Electronic Arts softened its own bullish outlook on the technology for similar reasons A growing number of artists have voiced concerns about NFTs in general as a vector for theft while the entire market for these digital goods seems at best wildly inflated and riddled with bad actors These incidents have also been an opportunity for some firms to win over to skeptical creators such as unabashed indie game marketplace Itch io nbsp A few have asked about our stance on NFTs NFTs are a scam If you think they are legitimately useful for anything other than the exploitation of creators financial scams and the destruction of the planet the we ask that please reevaluate your life choices Peace ️ーitch io itchio February But it s not just customers who companies stand to lose by stepping into this space While Brown maintains that working for Gumroad until recently was an excellent gig that paid well and afforded him plenty of freedom when asked if he d consider working for the company again in a non NFT context he responded with an emphatic quot hell no quot He considers the whole affair a breach of trust quot I m married I have two children I have a mortgage I have all kinds of bills and so I need to plan for that I can t just suddenly lose my regular gig and they don t tell me They lost all my trust there quot he said quot And then when they lied online from their account on Twitter you know I would never work for them again at this point I just have no trust at all with them It s irrelevant whether they actually make NFTs or not because they already made an action on NFTs by making me leave the company because I didn t want to work on that quot
