Etsy's take is now < 23.3%.

🚨BREAKING: Etsy stock just hit rock bottom with sellers still footing the bill.

Once the darling of the handmade economy, $ETSY is now down nearly 80% from its all-time high — and it’s not hard to see why.

💸 Revenue is flat.
📉 Marketplace sales dropped 9%.
🤯 They lost $52 million last quarter.

And yet… they just increased seller fees again.

Here’s the kicker:

Etsy’s “take rate” is now 23.3% — meaning almost a quarter of every sale goes straight to Etsy. And that’s before ads, shipping, and materials.

The result?

Sellers are burned out. Buyers are pulling back. And investors? They’re leaving.

What started as a platform for creators has slowly turned into another profit-first machine.

One that’s bleeding both its users and its stock price.

May their spirits be wrapped in love and light.

Blessed Be.
