Kleros Curate Storytelling Reward Program

The Rules

Every month, the team will disburse a total of up to 200,000 PNK for pieces of content submitted through the Kleros Curate platform to the Storytelling Reward Program.
 

The program is structured into two tiers: Standard and High Impact submissions. See the linked documents for all details on what are acceptable and unacceptable submissions.
 

All submissions should be submitted to the Standard Impact list here or the High Impact list here on Kleros Curate. Challenged submissions will be reviewed and decided on by Kleros jurors in the Curate Court (Standard submissions) and the Blockchain Non-Technical Court (High Impact submissions).
 

Feel free to discuss with other storytellers on the #storytellers channel in the Kleros Slack.
 

• High Impact submissions will be rewarded with 100.000 PNK, to be distributed between all submitters.
• Standard Impact submissions will be rewarded with 1000 PNK each, up to 100.000 PNK, or 100 unique submissions.
• The rewards will be disbursed each month starting from July 2020. The time a submission is accepted determines the month a submission belongs to. Note that the time when a submission has been published is not taken into account, as long as the publication was made after the end of the centralized storytelling program (11/02/2020).
   

The vision of a decentralized world where communities at large can organize and act together with ease is drawing near. Kleros Curate paves the way towards organizing information in a trustless environment and allows to create rules together on the ways this information will be presented.
