We wished to thank everyone who's continued to support zoovilles operations. This announcement is always to provide transparency towards the zoo community about the operations of the forum and related services we are very happy to provide. Zooville is a non-profit run forum for the benefit of all zoophiles worldwide.
As the financial/social chair of the moderation team, it is my duty to inform that due to inflation and the rising costs of electricity, the operation of zooville, beast.chat and the zoophilia.wiki will be more expensive this coming year 2023.
The yearly cost of operation was $2400 USD per year for the three services, and now that is being raised to $3000 per year.
On the donation page, the mod team agreed to mark 9/7/2020 as the placeholder for donations directly from users. This $4992 has been un-touched since that placeholder was set.
Zooville and its related sites have been operating from capital gains, investment, and limited ad-revenue for coming upon 3 years. Under my financial management, I've invested and grew the initial donor monies without incurring any risk to them and operated these 3 years without additional burdens upon the philanthropists or the users. I've always believed in easing the financial burden upon the zoo community as much as possible.
Hence the current balance sheets as of December 7th. (Subject to change due to volatility)
$2528 In BCH
$308 In BTC
$2375 In USD.
Total balance of $5211.
$3000 will be paid soon for the next 2023 year operation costs leaves a balance of $2211 remaining. At those balances, We can operate up to May 2024 assuming no changes in crypto prices or other factors we've been facing like DDOS attacks or server failure.
As for future initiatives or projects, we have agreed to not take on anymore with the possible outlook of future rate increases in 2023. We will only continue to operate Zooville.org, Beast.chat and the zoophilia.wiki. If you wish to donate to support the zoo community and these resources, you can click HERE.
This should summarize the current state of zoovilles operational costs.
