Summary

Mirror confirmed it will shut down within the next month, with all posts, blogs, and subscriber data automatically migrated to Paragraph. The transition requires no creator action, and all Mirror content will redirect seamlessly. Paragraph, which acquired Mirror in 2024 with backing from Union Square Ventures and Coinbase Ventures, now integrates features from both platforms. These include reader coins, writer coins, and a remix function, all underpinned by blockchain for attribution, access, and revenue distribution. Mirror founder Denis Nazarov will remain as an advisor during the transition.

Terms & Concepts
  • Reader coins: Tokens that allow supporters to directly contribute to specific posts within the Paragraph platform.
  • Writer coins: Tokens that provide long-term support for a creator’s entire body of work, offering ongoing monetization opportunities.
  • Remix function: A feature enabling users to publish responses linked to original content, contributing to shared discussion and revenue generation.
