How do Premium Articles work

Publications can create an NFT-gated paywall

Premium Articles allow writers within a Publication to create NFT-gated articles.

When a writer within a publication publishes an article, they can choose to publish it as a Premium Article. This creates an NFT-gated paywall for the article. To preserve the state of the NFT an article published as Premium cannot be edited.

When publishing as a Premium Article the volume and price of the NFT need to be specified.

When a reader navigates to the Premium Article they will encounter a paywall and can choose to buy the NFT to gain access to the article.

The NFT is free to be sold on the secondary market. Only wallets containing the NFT will be able to access the corresponding article.
