I think that's a somewhat apples to oranges comparison because they work a bit differently,
Differently how? Specifically, what additional benefits does the artist get that would motivate them to give up a siginificant portion of money to Bryce et. al.? Cause as far as I can tell, they get neverending additional obligations ("proof of fan") to anyone who has ever held a certain amount of their cryptocurrency, for no actual gain apart from the money from the initial sale (which, as mentioned, they can do cheaper and easier as a kickstarter or similar).
In other news, I see some fancy graphic that is posted in Slack and Discord, and, again it's just full of inaccurate or misleading statements.
The launch was
not "capped at $100 000".

very generous reading could you claim that Tao has a "market price" of 5099 sat (or, for that matter, that it started trading at 151 sat). A more realistic reading gives you around 1000 sat on release, and around 3-4000 currently.
Seriously.
