> Once you're hooked on Wyvern, you're hooked for life. I have whales that have spent thousands on it.

At minimum 4k (given by whales = min 2 whales, thousands = min 2 thosands :) ) So I'm guessing that this covers Claud accounts.

edit: taking a look at https://yegge.ai/wyvern - probably outdated - the revenue is at 5k.

> the revenue is at 5k.

"$5K a month, at the peak, from a single devoted “whale”"

So it doesn't tell us his monthly revenue ('at the peak' doing some heavy lifting), nor necessarily the total revenue, but I guess it tells us he has made at least $5k from it overall...

...earned from a single player he charmingly referred to as a "whale" (which, yes, I know is what they are commonly called in the mobile game industry but like, usually not to their faces).

But in any case, from Yegge's OP post:

> On the side I do occasional six-figure gigs where I fly to companies and teach them my techniques

Seems like being an AI Spiritual Leader pays well enough to keep him in tokens, at least until when/if a critical mass of people start adopting his system of stacking Claude subscriptions, in which case I imagine Anthropic will make that against their ToS.

It probably already is against their ToS, they just don't want to make an example out of anyone yet.

They need him to continue evangelizing how to get a single individual to burn $87k/month so the corporations who have to actually pay usage pricing will actually make them bank :)
