Today, we're excited to announce the launch of the Vertical Creator Program! This program rewards creators publishing high-quality content on Vertical. We'll be distributing 

5,000 USDC every week to creators on Vertical

Two weeks ago we launched Vertical, an open platform for publishing. We've had a great time working with creators on our platform to publish their original content and showcase their thoughts and ideas to the world. It's genuinely been a rollercoaster of a ride so far and we're only just getting started.

For this next chapter of Vertical, we're excited to partner with the most ambitious web3 creators to empower their voices. Our goal is to foster the best platform for web3 creators and thought leaders. That is why we are doubling down on investing back into the community that makes Vertical possible.


It's simple! Just set up your profile on Vertical, and start posting high-quality content. Note that support for posting content is not available on mobile yet, only on desktop.

Rewards are distributed each week to the wallet associated with your Vertical account. The first 5,000 USDC distribution will be on 

How is the reward distribution determined?

The distribution is determined from an internal set of objective and subjective criteria measuring quality of content and reader engagement. We do our best to make sure that the methodology is as fair as possible. In general, we suggest posting unique, high-quality content and attracting readers to engage with the content.

Any original content! Note that cross-posted content is welcome, but only content that is posted exclusively on Vertical is eligible for rewards
