After nearly two years of behind-the-scenes work by our product team, the Decrypt Token is live today for all readers in our mobile app.
This isn’t an ICO or a fundraise. The Decrypt Token (DCPT) isn’t exchangeable for money or for other cryptocurrencies. The token is our way of participating in the decentralized industry we cover, and experimenting with how cryptocurrency can spur reader engagement.
We see it as a very exciting step for digital journalism.
It’s very simple: You earn DCPT for reading Decrypt articles, sharing them with a friend, and reacting to them, all inside our mobile app. Soon, readers who’ve amassed enough tokens can redeem them for digital rewards.
And it’s very cool: you’ll quickly discover the tactile fun of watching a coin fly into your wallet every time you earn one.
You still might ask: Why do a token?
Decentralized ownership
A token provides Decrypt readers with irrevocable ownership, it adds to our existing reader community, and it will serve as a foot
