🌐 The platform focuses on three core areas: content creation, distribution, and monetization, with a strong emphasis on interoperability and ownership shifting from platforms to creators.

💰 Paragraph offers two monetization strategies: subscriptions backed by NFTs, allowing deeper relationships with fans, and collectible content, allowing readers to collect and engage with specific sentences from articles.
