Brief

@fromzerotomill claims 90% of seven‑figure affiliates are ex‑ecommerce operators who left because of payment holds and ~30% margins. He argues they now generate six‑figure monthly profits by running TikTok slideshow ads to mobile games, citing a Glitchy (@WeAreGlitchy) interview in which one affiliate made $1,000,000 and reached $30k days.
