A coalition of news organizations and journalists in various parts of the world have banded together to create a cryptocurrency to sustain funding for investigative journalism. Called PressCoin, the digital currency was made to get rid of the advertising revenue model, decentralize funding sources, and upend corporate media monopolies with collaborative content that strengthens civic participation around the world. The Ethereum-based currency will be distributed to the wallets of both readers and journalists based on the level of engagement they are able to create, as measured using the Quintype content management system. Readers will receive PressCoin for generating insights from thoughtful conversation. Compensation levels for readers and journalists will be based on reputation documented and recorded in the blockchain. PressCoin publications will not allow readers to engage in comments or interact with anonymous accounts. Like De Correspondent, PressCoin will allow limited access to read its content, but to read full stories, interact with journalists, or comment on stories, users will have to pay for a subscription or make micropayments for individual stories. After the token sale, people will be able to subscribe or join the PressCoin system using fiat currency, credit cards, or online payment systems

CryptoIndex
CryptoIndex is a Web3 platform enabling the creation and trading of tokenized crypto-indexes — essentially allowing anyone (from retail to institutional players) to create or invest in baskets of cryptocurrencies. These baskets, referred to as indexes, reduce user exposure to the volatility of individual tokens while harnessing the collective upside potential. Drawing parallels with traditional finance (e.g., S&P 500, NASDAQ), CryptoIndex aims to replicate the convenience and risk-management benefits of index investing for a highly dynamic crypto market. Key features & use-cases: • High Demand for Simplicity Many investors find crypto overly complex, with thousands of tokens each requiring individual analysis. Index-based solutions solve this. • DeFi Evolution The DeFi market reached ~$100B+ in TVL at its peak, but index-focused solutions remain a small fraction of that. CryptoIndex targets this underexplored niche. • Hold-to-Earn Model Index token holders share in the platform’s fee revenue, creating a compelling incentive for long-term participation. • Deflationary $INDX A monthly Buyback & Burn mechanism further benefits token value appreciation over time, aligning with user interests.
