We just shipped writer coins on Paragraph: a new way to support writers & share in the upside. Paid subscriptions have shortcomings: there's no benefit for being early & it's hard to show off your support. You can read & subscribe but you're not truly along for the journey. Writer coins provide a more compelling alternative: by backing a writer across all of their work, you can signal you were an early supporter & share in the momentum you helped create. Plus, when you launch a writer coin, you can reward those who supported you: - past collectors on Paragraph/Mirror - followers on FC or Base app - holders of your Zora/Base app creator coins - & more Learn more: https://paragraph.com/@blog/writer-coins

Can any paragraph blogger honestly tell me they’ve made more profit, or had more engagement since the move to the creator coin/post coin system? I want to know why so many good apps went to this method. I haven’t had any engagement from paragraph since the switch. None from Zora either.

Artist Spotlight - Offline There’s something powerful about artists who choose their own path and decide that building their dream is worth more than clocking in for someone else’s. For our Lucky Number 7 Artist Spotlight, we’re featuring an artist whose name alone carries the energy of growth, abundance, and life. Ekinusu, better known in the art world as @0ffline She is a visionary creator blending spirituality, symbolism, and cosmic depth into minimalist surrealist works that feel like transmissions from another dimension.

Favorite part and why ~ The section on how identity leaks through linkage, not exposure. One KYC event connects past and future forever. Privacy isn’t secrecy. It’s separation. That idea stayed. I learned something ~ Yes. Compartmentalization is survival. Identity layer, transaction layer, behavior layer. If they ever touch, privacy collapses.

Amazing progress @paragraph Love the interface for launching a writer coin now. Feedback/ideas @reidtandy @colin - Would be cool to be able to offer up some of my allocation to certain cohorts e.g. OG mirror NFT hodlers vs farcaster followers - Interesting the discrepancy between number of farcaster followers in this dashboard vs on our profiles, some spam account filter? - Would be cool to be able to include holders of more than one erc-20 token e.g. if you have a few projects Getting back into a regular writing/publish schedule, my writer coin is LIVE Appreciate retweets: https://x.com/papajimjams/status/2021211419148943759?s=20
