How Microtransactions Became a Billion-Dollar Business Model

Posted on May 26, 2025 by A. J. Riot

Microtransactions are a prime example of the snowball effect in action. Every individual transaction is tiny, often only worth a few pence or pounds. On their own, they seem inconsequential. Yet many companies have built their wealth on the backs of small but cumulatively mighty microtransactions. Even small purchases accumulate over time, particularly when thousands or millions of people become regular customers. Moreover, the frequency of these microspends tends to increase as users continue engaging with the app, game, or platform – without them fully realizing how much they’ve actually spent.

Best MMA Fighters By Country (All-Time)

Posted on May 20, 2025 by Jason

Ever wonder who the top-rated fighters by country are? Wonder no more…

Below are the “best” fighters by nationality, using all-time rating points. For the purposes of this article, I combined the men and the women into one list. Though, the value of a “point” isn’t exactly the same between genders, I think it will be good enough for this.

Canada

#1 – Georges St. Pierre [26-2-0, 37917 pts]

If you expected to see Jones at the top spot, make sure you revisit GSP’s ledger. He faced a murderer’s row of Welterweight contenders, beat all of them, and avenged both of his losses in doing so.

Honorable Mention: Rory MacDonald (#105)
