In the past, if you wanted to make money as a writer, you had to get published in a magazine, work for a company, or beg people to read your blog. Web3 has changed that.

‎Right now, you can earn crypto just by writing useful or interesting content — if you know where to post and what kind of writing people pay for.

‎I’m writing this as someone new to Steemit, but I’ve been researching platforms and testing things. If you’re a young person like me trying to build something real, here’s what I’ve found.


‎1. Join Platforms That Pay Writers in Crypto

‎Steemit – where I’m posting this. You get paid in STEEM for upvotes. Your writing needs to get attention or support from curators.

‎Mirror.xyz – focused on web3 writing and publishing. You can crowdfund, sell writing as NFTs, and build a crypto-native blog.

‎Paragraph.xyz – good for people who want to build a crypto newsletter.

‎Read.cash and Publish0x – they pay in Bitcoin Cash and ETH-based tokens for good posts.

‎Layer3, Dework, Bounty platforms – sometimes offer tasks that involve writing for crypto startups (like blog posts or guides).


‎2. Write the Kind of Stuff People in Web3 Actually Read

‎If you want to make money, you have to write things people want to read and can learn from.

‎Here’s what works:

‎Explainers: “What Is DeFi?”, “How Layer 2 Works”, etc.

‎Opinions: “Why Most Web3 Projects Fail”, “Crypto Scams to Avoid”

‎Tutorials: “How to Set Up MetaMask”, “How I Made My First NFT Sale”

‎Guides for beginners: People always need beginner content.


‎And don’t try to sound smart, just be clear and real.


‎3. Offer Writing Services to Web3 Projects

‎If you’re good at writing, you can get paid directly by crypto startups.
‎They need:

‎Website copy

‎Whitepapers

‎Twitter threads

‎Medium blog articles

‎Project summaries

‎Tokenomics explanations


‎Find them on:

‎Twitter (look for projects under 10K followers)

‎Telegram groups

‎Discord servers

‎Bounty boards like bountyxyz or crew3


‎DM them with a sample and a price. Many of them are looking for cheap, fast writers.



‎4. Monetize Attention

‎If you post consistently and people like your stuff:

‎They’ll follow you

‎Projects will reach out to you

‎You’ll be seen as someone who knows what they’re talking about


‎It starts slow, but it builds fast if you don’t quit.


‎Real Advice to End This With:

‎Don’t fake anything — post what you know, learn out loud

‎Focus on building trust and value before money

‎Use free platforms first, then go for client jobs when you’ve got samples

‎Keep posting, even when you get no upvotes at first


‎Thanks for reading.
