Maybe if Clubhouse went all-in on being a virtual gated community where you had to pay for access and the subscription fee was high enough to not only cover expenses but provide a sense of exclusivity. If all of the hoi-polloi are using Facebook's version of Clubhouse, there might be value in the original Clubhouse if using it means not having to be around working-class schmucks like me.
"as is with the invite only system when their competitors can easily copy them to bankruptcy"
Funny but same could have been said about Facebook or Gmail back in 2004. May be the invite only system is not a bad way to start. Just a thought.
It is like Zello but has a nicer UI, less users (165 million on Zello) and VC funded (Zello is bootstrapped).
With Facebook and Twitter attempting to copy and release their own Clubhouse competitors, I don't see how Clubhouse can survive as is with the invite only system when their competitors can easily copy them to bankruptcy.
