Journalism meets Web3 with the launch of Heist Media, a first-of-its-kind news organization that uses blockchain technology to empower independent creators. Heist enters the space with a collection of 5,000 hand-drawn covers, each including a copy of our launch publication Heist Magazine and its collection of New York Times Bestselling writers and independent NFT artists. Rather than asking readers to pay monthly fees to access paywalls, Heist's first NFT will function as the reader's permanent subscription, plus access to community discords, newsroom discussions, and exclusive drops. The transparency of blockchain technology and the holder's unprecedented stake in media production will encourage greater trust in the media, while NFT royalty features let us give writers and artists a better share of the value their work creates.
