For millions of Brazilians, YouTube has become a consolidated form of work and a promise of income. The answer lies in the data: among 895 channels with more than 50 subscribers in 2018, just over half remained active in 2026. Considering the total of these channels, the estimated income of 72% of them was less than a minimum wage (R$ 1.621) per month.
