they would buy an initial amount of tokens, then pass those back and forth without cashing out. The 'tipper' account would just have to be able to accept tokens back from the model's account.
Yes, you're technically down by the difference between initial purchase cost versus the value of those tokens, but that's a one-time hit and (if they can make this work overall) made up for by generating more tips from other viewers, that they can cash out.
But still not convinced it's a viable scenario that any/many would really consider worthwhile.
And the risk is that we've all seen hundreds of coloured users in a room silently watching one person tipping alone, so no matter how you try to encourage others to part with tokens, some days it works, some days it doesn't.
On CB this is ok and fine and understandable, but on somewhere like stripchat, you can't exchange tokens back and forth like you can on CB, so the model and partner would be out of pocket from it.
You would need 2 different accounts, and I don't think a model account on stripchat can send tokens to other models - it's been suggested that it can be done but if I remember, it can't for now.
But I definitely do see this happen, in 1 particular room, a husband and wife do it, and I have no idea why to be honest. he is even at "Diamond" level, which is rank 55+ (I think he is 70ish or more), which means he has spent $1000s of dollars (less than $10,000 though as that si Rank 80), but still, it means ultimately they are out of pocket from it.. or maybe they have some plan of making it work, I am unsure but can't think of a way that it would be beneficial on Stripchat.
Obviously on CB model's and their partner do it, even the model and mods or other regular users do it
