And why is it better than publishing and reading on Medium?

mirror.xyz is the premier Web3 DeFi solution to the Web2 product Medium

Projects and writers can create a free publication simply by linking an EVM wallet on Optimism to an email address. When using mirror.xyz, users enjoy all the inherent benefits of Web3:

• Users own their personal data and IP, which is never collected and sold

• Signing in is protected by private keys, reducing bots and hackers

• Monetize payment with crypto - no more fussy anti-fraud payment gateway BS

Monetize your own content

Writers curate monetization for each published article individually. By creating a free NFT collection with custom supply and price, users can invest in their future fan base. Even if the collectibles don’t sell out immediately, their scarcity imbues inherent value when the publisher’s future fan base grows past grassroots, or if the project performs well and goes viral.

After the collection limit is reached, the collectible can never be minted again. However, sold-out collections are listed automatically on Opensea.io. Royalties from secondary sales provide perpetual value to the publisher (project or writer), collector, and mirror.xyz.

As an added bonus, the project can retroactively design utility for holders of certain mirror.xyz collectibles, incentivizing community members to collect future NFTs before they sell out, and raising the floor price and royalties of Secondary collections.

Why should crypto projects choose mirror.xyz over Medium?

mirror.xyz is a DeFi Web3 messaging board built by and for Web3 DeFi users. Its search and suggest algorithms are more likely to hit potential readers. Have you ever had an article flagged for illegal cryptocurrency content on Medium? That will never happen on mirror.xyz.

Most importantly, the monetization system is far superior to that of Medium. It cuts out the corporate middleman and allows creators to monetize their content on their own terms, without signing away their rights of ownership.

Thankfully, you don’t have to choose one or the other! Let me show you how to publish first on mirror.xyz to preserve ownership on monetization, then cross-publish to Medium.

Too busy to publish 2-3 mirror.xyz articles a week?

That’s too bad. Search algorithms suggest that publishing informative long-form content at this pace optimizes the growth phase of startup social communities. If your project eventually goes viral the money your team left on the table at mirror.xyz will be substantial. And those Medium articles won’t be worth a Satoshi.

Hire a writer to maintain and monetize your project articles

Whether you need a single article, a collection during the project’s prelaunch phase, or a full-time Communications Manager, adding a staff writer to your Team’s arsenal is a prudent and effective idea to keep your community organized and informed.

If everyone on the Team does their job well, the cost of hiring a writer will completely pay for itself, and more. Viral projects tend to sell out the collectibles for every single article published. I’ll let you do the math.

My inbox is open for writing inquiries and project partnerships. In Fall 2021 I cut my teeth as a Staff Writer for Loop Finance on Terra. By February I was made a Marketing Executive. By April I was promoted to the CEO of the launchpad Luna Launcher - the launchpad, ironically never launched because in May…… well, let’s not talk about Terra Luna in May 2022.

Could your project benefit from an experienced Staff Writer? Does my skill set synergize with your mission and vision? Contact me at unlocke.wealth@gmail.com with any inquiries. Let’s design a plan together where both parties win.

Eager to unLocke your project’s viral potential,
