Web3.0 Writing Platform: A New Economic Era for Creators
Making money online through writing is still relatively new.

Making money online through writing is still fresh.
In the past, you had to be a scientist and come up with creative ways to get your audience to pay for your words. It led to a lot of shady things, and Web 3.0 aims to elevate the world of writing.
For those who don't know, Web 3.0 simply means a new version of the internet built on blockchain—decentralized and owned by users.
It might not seem obviously appealing to the masses, but that's exactly your opportunity. Here are the Web3.0 writing platforms you should watch:
1. GM.XYZ
GM is a decentralized version of Twitter. In the strange world of Web3.0 filled with bizarre animated NFT avatars and odd slogans, "GM" stands for "Good Morning."
Every day, Web 3.0 users across all social media platforms post a short sentence with "GM" and an idea. This new platform leverages that habit and even named their site after it.
Right now, it mainly functions as a business hub for crypto people to discuss issues, but it has built-in monetization options worth watching.
2. Minds dot com
You can immediately tell this is a Web 3.0 platform because you log in with a wallet instead of an email address. It looks very much like Twitter, but under the hood, it does a lot more.
They describe themselves as Freedom Tech.
"Censorship hampers society’s ability to communicate, creates literal division, and prevents any chance of unity."
They argue that big tech companies try to "ban misinformation and offensive speech because it’s dividing society"—but in reality, they’re stifling healthy debate among humans.
When discussion becomes impossible, ideas stagnate. That’s the road to dictatorship.
Future generations will wonder how our civilization welcomed algorithms and AI that divide us and openly control our thoughts—Minds.
Earning money on Minds.com
From the start, Minds built their model around a content economy. Here’s how you earn:
-
Place your content behind a paywall and get paid for traffic.
-
Get paid for every member you refer.
-
Receive tips from your audience.
-
Charge membership fees for premium content.
3. DESO
DESO was formerly known as Bitclout, and it differs from other platform options.
Initially, its most talked-about feature was allowing content creators to launch their own cryptocurrency—essentially their own stock. Once your stock goes live, users can invest in you. You can reward them accordingly or let investors share in your future profits. Each user has a price tag showing their dollar value.
Since rebranding to DESO, they’ve stopped trying to be just a writing or social media platform—they aim to become the foundational layer for all content platforms.
Their vision is that you create your profile and link your crypto wallet to them, then build the platforms you use daily—YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram—on top of it.
This isn’t yet a reality, but their tech stack and vision look promising.
Experimenting with turning yourself into a tradable stock—that’s the future.
Earning money on DESO
-
Diamond "likes" from users
-
Turn your content into NFTs and sell them
-
Sell your cryptocurrency (stock) to investors/fans
4. Mirror.XYZ
Mirror initially seemed like it could become a long-form blogging platform, but to find product-market fit, they went niche.
Their main focus now is sharing writing to help users raise funds for startups/projects—an open crowdfunding platform.
Once they solidify their position, the sky’s the limit.
"On Mirror, you're not the product—you're the owner."
5. Orbis
Orbis is another attempt to decentralize Twitter, where anonymous users are the norm on this platform—a trend that began when "cancel culture" started spiraling out of control.
Just like being banned from Discord for having no username or avatar.
In the decentralized world, your community is portable and you own your data. But Orbis is still very early.
6. Sigle.io
Write and earn BTC.
That’s their slogan, and I love it—but the problem is this feature hasn’t launched yet.
What’s great about Sigle is that they directly target writers—I haven’t seen any other decentralized platform boldly state that.
Again, this platform is still in early stages—worth exploring.
Final Thoughts
Many Web3 writing platforms allow you to create DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations). A DAO is like a registered decentralized business that can crowdsource builders and community leaders and involve them in earning from day one.
This functionality will one day—soon—build the future creator economy.
Many of you aim to create content that earns, and as Web3.0 writing platforms evolve, they’ll help you achieve that.
The good news: We’re still early.
The bad news: User growth.
Without users, their features don’t matter. Change is coming slowly—watch closely where content creators’ attention flows, then jump in quickly.
