Crypto Media Coalition and Roundtable Introduce Token ($RTB) to Empower Independent Journalism and Freedom of Expression By Chainwire


New York, USA, September 9, 2024, Chainwire

Visionary co-founders Mario Nawfal, Scott Melker, James Heckman, and Eyal Hertzog, and an elite coalition of crypto visionaries, have joined forces to launch a revolutionary token-based Web3 platform designed to support and fund independent journalism. The decentralized media platform “Roundtable” allows citizens to directly support publishers and already hosts millions of viewers and revenue, ensuring sustainability.

On Monday, September 9, the founders will present the $RTB ecosystem at X Spaces: Crypto Town Hall.

$RTB leverages blockchain technology to protect journalists and consumers from threats or actual demonetization, an insidious form of censorship. Roundtable integrates the $RTB token into the platform, so that premium content partners can share ownership in the ecosystem and connect directly with their supporters to ensure independent journalism thrives in the long term.

The coalition includes a dream team of the world’s top cryptocurrency journalists, analysts, policymakers, industry leaders and media brands (full list below).

James Heckman, CEO and President, commented: “Our platform represents 35 years of experience building digital media platforms for major media outlets, now enhanced by Hertzog’s revolutionary Web3 foundation and integrated payment system. There is truly nothing else like it on the market and it is primed to scale from day one. The promise of decentralized media has finally arrived.”

Scott Melker, co-founder and host of The Wolf of All Streets Podcast and CryptoTownHall, also commented: “The $RTB token is not just another cryptocurrency; it is a beacon for free speech and a new era for journalism where the truth is not only told, but rewarded.”

Roundtable’s revolutionary Web3 platform addresses the opaque tactics and data leakage prevalent on traditional platforms by ensuring absolute transparency and data governance. Previous Web3 media companies attempted to succeed alongside traditional platforms but were unable to achieve sufficient revenue or a critical mass of consumers. Roundtable has already established an economic and distribution tipping point to execute the sustainability of the $RTB token ecosystem.

James Heckman and Eyal Hertzog will be taking to the Crypto Town Hall floors next Monday, September 9th to talk about the $RTB ecosystem, with many of their co-founding partners and industry leaders listed below. Users can visit the CoinGecko homepage and peer list to learn more about the token. To join Roundtable and interact with the top names in cryptocurrency, users can download the Roundtable app or visit rtb.io in their web browser.
