This eSIM wrapper hit $5,600/mo without owning a single tower

$5,600/month. That's what an eSIM storefront built on somebody else's network pays its owner six months after launch — 2x his software developer salary, and roughly a third of what his first app already throws off at $15,000/month. He owns no towers, no spectrum, no SIM factory. He owns a checkout page and a list of people who trusted him once already. That second asset is the whole case.
