Community-Led Journalism Growth Model

The Eureka News platform operates on a community-led journalism model that creates mutual benefits for all participants:

Writers

Writers grow personal brands through on-chain journalism and earn for writing/editing. They contribute to the Abstract ecosystem knowledge base while building their reputation.

Readers

Readers access verified insights from trusted community sources. They benefit from high-quality, indexed content that persists beyond social media feeds.

Projects

Projects gain discoverability through community-led journalism. They reach engaged audiences looking for information about Abstract ecosystem projects.

$ERK Holders & Projects

Holders of $ERK and projects benefit from discovery through SEO indexing and organic traffic. The platform’s indexed content makes projects discoverable to search engines and AI systems.

The Cycle

These four groups form a continuous growth cycle where:
  • Writers create valuable content
  • Readers consume and engage with content
  • Projects gain visibility and discoverability
  • $ERK holders benefit from ecosystem growth
  • The cycle reinforces itself, creating sustainable growth

Key Principles

  2. Community-First: Contributors are directly rewarded for their work
  3. Growth Investment: Marketing and staking ensure long-term platform viability
  4. Transparency: Clear revenue distribution model
