The problem Wild Road solves

Written content on the internet is growing at a exponential rate. This will only accelerate at savvy marketers, publishers and SEO specialists leverage AI to create their content factories in the fight for your attention.

It's hard for good writers to get paid for their ideas. For readers, it's hard to find quality content.

Zora can help writers the same way it helps artists. Zora makes it easy for writers to publish text NFTs and get paid for it.

The problem with the Zora client is that it is built for NFT artists, not writers. Wild Road aims to fix this.

Challenges I ran into

Creating an text NFT from scratch is tough, especially when using an online editor. I wanted to create an image of the text so that I could store it in the NFT's metadata.

I reached out to the zora team for help and they were able to assist,

They created an easy way to build metadata for text NFTs using their API,

Many thanks to Zora team!
