The primary measure of impact for BlockTrend revolves around the engagement and support of our readers. As a media platform primarily sustained through reader subscriptions, the willingness of our audience to financially contribute is a key indicator of success. This subscription-based model reflects the value readers place on our content and its role in the blockchain community.

Starting in 2023, we've taken steps to enhance transparency and inclusivity. We've begun making previously paywalled content accessible to the public, shifting our approach to encourage readers to support BlockTrend through platforms like Gitcoin Grants and RetroPGF, enabling us to operate as a public good. The success of this transition, gauged by the growing number of supporters through these public goods funding mechanisms, serves as another essential metric of our impact.
