If you are a writer in the Web 2.0 space, you might have experienced many frustrations. From limited monetization options to stolen content, the traditional ways of publishing content on the internet seem outdated. Enter Mirror.xyz, the first decentralized publishing platform for writers.
Mirror.xyz is a publishing platform for writers that leverages cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. Through a decentralized, user-owned, crypto-based network, Mirror is revolutionizing the way we express, share, and monetize our thoughts.
This unique publishing platform was created by Denis Nazarov in 2020. It has been regarded as the Medium of Web3, simply because of its functionality. However, this decentralized writing platform developed to help creators connect with their target audience is an innovative initiative in the Web3 space.
Turn your publication into an NFT You can turn your publication into an NFT, which can then be sold at an auction to readers who want to invest in your thoughts, or you can sell your story to a publication as an NFT. Also, each time your NFT is sold, you can earn royalties on your NFT.
Crowdfund an idea Besides turning your story into an NFT, you can also crowdfund your idea and readers can offer you money to write it. Then, once your story is finished your readers get a cut of the story’s profits.
Embed your own NFTs As a creator, you also have the ability to embed your own NFTs, or NFTs that are owned by other content creators, and make a profit from them. Essentially, the more an NFT is shared within published content, the more value it has.
Add your own call-to-action (CTA) Similar to any publication on the internet, you still have the ability to add your own CTA link within your article. This CTA can link to anything you offer that your want to put more eyes on such as an email list, course, eBook, or coaching you might offer.
Next, you’re probably wondering how this all works.
