I can't say I'm a fan. I stopped using LinkedIn because off their creepy, "show me who was looking at my profile" feature.
I know I'm weird because I don't really use WIP for my todos vs. WIP'ing status updates as I go. So I'd be +1 for optional private todos but I'd never use it anyways.
Not sure if you have seen collective2, but they have an interesting model. Basically, think social media for trading stocks, bonds, gold, etc. Everyone's results are public so you can see how effective they are and then you can pay them a subscription to see the details behind their trades and portfolio. So you can pay to see how a real gold trader beats the market and other cool stuff like that. (note: subscribing to someone does not give you access to contact them.)
So it might be a stretch but it would be kind of cool if that existed for makers so someone could pay you to see what your Stripe stats look like through the app and some other level of status messages worth paying for.
Have you seen home.omg.lol yet? I signed up for a 10-year account recently because the app works well, and it was $50 ($5/year).
I point it out to you because it does an amazing amount of community building as add-on value which I think is brilliant. Not sure how many of these are relevant to WIP, but I bet reading their offerings might give you some ideas.

Oh that's a really interesting idea!
I've been wanting to build a "share your Stripe numbers" product since before it was cool, but never found a good model.
Some mechanic where a user can unlock it seems really interesting.
