Yeah, you're close on the cut (varied from 12.5% to 25% depending on purchase types).

The revenue was nowhere near 1.2B.

(I wrote the below in another comment, but it's relevant to this comment):

Both of the claims in my original comment are correct as stated:

* Roughly 20K active creators (VAL_A).

* An average monthly payout to creators of $5K (VAL_B).

HOWEVER, that does not mean that VAL_A * VAL_B = total monthly payout. The below details are relevant:

1. Not all active creators made money.

2. There was a payout minimum (well, a free payout minimum, which the majority of users waited to reach).
