During my search for a hidden treasure within the Solana ecosystem, have stumbled upon a diamond in rough ideal for fellow writers that has great potential! Currently there are various providers of decentralized blogs where you can generate income from your content, that is, they are tokenized; On my path as a content creator know Steemit (Steam Blockchain), PeakD (Hive Blockchain); Although they were very popular at the time, never encouraged myself to write in them, their interface, community and structure never aroused interest.

I can’t leave Binance Square aside where currently I’m KOL, they are starting and implementing many innovative things, although their reach and community is enormous and has been what caught me! However, everything has changed since met BULB where saying “write to earn” does apply and it is full of interesting things to grow as a writer and the most beautiful of all built in Solana.

With blogs like Wordpress or Blogger, your online activity doesn’t typically earn you rewards like it does with BULB, these web2 blogs can generate income, but it is centralized and very complicated to monetize. In the crypto environment it is simpler thanks to decentralization and tokenization, and an additional plus is blockchain where platform operates, in case of BULB is one of the first do-to-earn blogging platforms built on the Solana blockchain, and they are driven to popularize the concepts of Write-to-Earn (W2E) and Read-to-Earn (R2E).

How can you start earning within BULB? Simply engage with the community, collect BULBmojis, accumulate BULBPoints, win $BULB tokens weekly, top the leaderboard. ¿Many unknown terms? don’t worry, here will summarize everything in detail so that you know this hidden treasure in Solana!
