Write with us

If you’re interested in writing with us, email write@ culture3.com to get in touch. You're welcome to pitch a story, but this isn’t expected.

There are two ways to win on the internet, and we’re built for an era where reaching hearts and minds is more valuable than eyes and ears. We amplify uplifting stories from a diverse and eclectic collection of artists, builders, and communities to guide the narrative on how the world understands the new technological paradigm.

Our Cultural stories feature explorations, reviews, and interviews with leaders across art, film, music, and storytelling, showing how their work is only possible with web3.

Our Builders stories provide insight on how the future is being built on web3, illustrating the genuine opportunities of web3 technologies across all layers.

Our Communities stories tell the tales of new communities built upon web3, existing communities augmented by web3, and how web3 technologies are influencing how society works.

When crafting a pitch, there are some questions you may wish to consider:

- How does this align with one of our categories?
- What is the unexpected or new angle to this story?
- What is the ‘why now’ hook?
- Why are you the best person to tell this story?

What will we likely reject?

- Stories that lack a clear angle on ‘why web3 makes this possible’
- Substance-less lists, bullets of projects, and ideas without real writing attached.
- Pieces that don’t keep our broader audience in mind
