Clubhouse hasn't said its last word - Clubhouse must stand out with the serial launches of audio services, like this week with the beta version of Hotline, the Q&A service signed by Facebook, a mix of Clubhouse and Instagram Live . The audio platform has thus launched Clubhouse Payments to allow hosts to receive money from their listeners , and therefore, in the long term, to monetize their content. Even if Clubhouse is not yet completely established in digital social practices , it undeniably wants to stay in the race. Proof of this is, a few days later, when, after a new fundraising, Clubhouse saw its valuation approach $4 billion just one year after its launch . An impressive figure, which also corresponds to the offer that Twitter would have made to buy Clubhouse, before the project was finally abandoned .
