Substack\u2019s online platform allows writers and other independent publishers to do their best work while generating income directly from their audiences, and on their own terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Substack provides publishing, payment, analytics, and design infrastructure, as well as other key services and a thriving community, to support independent publishers of subscription newsletters. Founded on the principle that what you read matters and good writing is valuable, Substack has received backing from Andreessen Horowitz, Y-Combinator, Fifty Years, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, Substack\u2019s high-quality infrastructure hosts a ton of incredible Bitcoin content. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/backlinko.com\/substack-users\">Backlinko<\/a>, 2 out of the top 5 paid business newsletters on Substack are focused on Bitcoin. Clearly, Substack and their users will benefit from support for Bitcoin as a way to pay and be paid. Some of the biggest names in the Bitcoin industry are on the Substack platform including Willy Woo and Dan Held. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re excited to be working with OpenNode to enable independent publishers on Substack to accept crypto payments,\u201d said Nick Inzucchi, product designer at Substack. \u201cHaving this option will give writers more flexibility and freedom, and we look forward to doing more in crypto as our users demand it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/opennode.com\">OpenNode<\/a> is passionate about driving Bitcoin adoption, and with this partnership, we are excited to give Substack writers &#8211; starting with select publications &#8211; the ability to accept Bitcoin payments from subscribers around the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As we continue on the journey towards mass adoption of Bitcoin around the world, integration with Substack is one of our proudest achievements. We look forward to working with Substack to encourage Bitcoin adoption and empower people around the world to benefit from instant, lowest-cost Bitcoin payments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> 2<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minutes<\/span><\/span>OpenNode is proud to announce that Substack has officially added Bitcoin payments to their platform!
