               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                Line is primarily used for messaging, and stickers are manga-style cartoons that offer users a way to express their personalities.
               </p>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                With a wider cast of characters than emojis, stickers give users a more dynamic and specific

               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                Line launched in 2011 with its own stickers, but the sticker economy took off in 2014 when the company opened up its marketplace to creators.
               </p>
               <h4 style="font-size: 17px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; padding-top: 8px; margin: 0px;">
                <strong>
                 Business is booming

               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                In 2020 alone, Line pulled in $200m in sticker revenue, with 4m designers creating stickers on the platform.
               </p>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                The economics break down like so:
               </p>
               <ul style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 12px; margin: 0;">
                <li style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 0 0 0 15px; padding: 0px;">
                 Stickers typically come in packs of 40 that cost $1 to $5
                </li>
                <li style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 0 0 0 15px; padding: 0px;">
                 Apple or Android take a 30% fee on the purchase
                </li>
                <li style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 0 0 0 15px; padding: 0px;">
                 The remaining 70% is split 50/50 between Line and the creator
                </li>
               </ul>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                Like any marketplace, Line’s sticker economy follows a power law — with the top 10 sticker creators making an average of
                <strong>
                 $10m
                </strong>

               </p>
               <h4 style="font-size: 17px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; padding-top: 8px; margin: 0px;">
                <strong>
                 As sticker revenue has grown…
                </strong>
               </h4>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                … the marketplace has become more saturated. Artists say the most popular characters are set in place, which makes it harder to break through.
               </p>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                For its part, Line has played both sides — hyping the sticker opportunity for creators, while admitting that helping new creators is one of its biggest challenges.
               </p>
               <p style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 140%; margin: 5px 0px 10px;">
                At this point, any new designer that can break through with a popular sticker truly deserves a gold star.
