The practice of acquiring pre-existing user profiles on the short-form video platform and related community servers on a popular communication platform constitutes a specific type of digital transaction. These transactions involve individuals or entities exchanging ownership of established profiles, frequently with the intention of leveraging the profile’s existing follower base or perceived authority within the platform. For instance, a user might seek to purchase a profile with a significant number of followers to quickly promote a new product or service.
The perceived value in this digital asset stems from several factors, including the number of followers, engagement rates on previous content, and the overall niche or demographic aligned with the profile. Purchasing such profiles can offer an immediate advantage in terms of audience reach, potentially saving considerable time and resources compared to building a following organically. Historically, this practice has evolved alongside the growth of social media, reflecting a broader trend of valuing digital influence and audience attention.
