【BlockBeats】As we enter 2026, major content platforms are ramping up support for creators. X platform’s latest move is significant—the official announcement that creator earnings at the end of 2025 hit a record high, and they have declared this year as the “Year of Creators.”

More importantly, X is adjusting its content incentive strategy. The platform is no longer solely promoting short, fragmented content but is increasing support for long-form articles and in-depth content. The official statement indicates a focus on investing in the “writing” field, aiming to recognize high-value content that can shape public opinion, generate hot topics, and promote cultural development. This means creators with real talent and the ability to produce in-depth viewpoints now have an opportunity.

The new Creator Studio revenue overview panel is also about to go live, allowing creators to better see their monetization status. X’s ambition is clear: to become the best platform for earning money through content.

Want to earn this money? Here’s a recent opportunity.

X has just announced a content incentive event: a maximum reward of $1 million, specifically for high-quality articles. The participation requirements seem quite strict—they must be original content, at least 1,000 words, with review standards mainly based on exposure on the homepage timeline. Currently, only US users can participate, with the event running from January 16 to 28.

Of course, content that violates X community policies, contains hate speech, or is filled with fraud or manipulation tactics will be disqualified and ineligible to participate. This shows the platform still cares a lot about content quality and community ecology.

For creators who consistently share insights on the platform, this opportunity is definitely worth seizing. Good content can make money, and platforms can attract high-quality creators—this model is becoming increasingly common in the creator economy era.

This wave of opportunity is for writers; short video creators should step aside. X finally understands that in-depth content is the way to go. Million dollars? It depends on how many people can truly produce valuable content. Transparency in the revenue dashboard; now we can finally see who is exploiting the platform's benefits. Support for long articles; it shows that the quick and easy approach is outdated. I just want to know how the standards are set; who decides what is "high value"? Wait, is this another case of spending money to burn traffic? Will it still be so generous next year? Content monetization is really happening; this time, it's not just empty promises. I've been saying for a while that they should follow Twitter's approach; look at this.

Finally, a platform has seen through it; fragmented content should have been phased out long ago. In-depth quality articles are truly worth this price; X's move is very clever. A million dollars invested, only genuinely talented authors can survive. Creator Studio's transparent revenue sharing—this is real sincerity. Speaking of, why are there so few platforms that can make money? X is one. Writing well doesn't necessarily mean earning more; it also depends on whether the platform is truly willing to pay. It's a golden era, everyone. Those who enter now will earn the fastest.

Finally, a platform that values in-depth content. Fragmented content really should step aside. Everyone who writes long articles should seize the opportunity; a million dollars is no small amount. This wave of X is truly investing real money in creators, which sounds much better than some platforms just talking the talk. Is there a market for long-form in-depth articles? Then I need to reconsider my update strategy. I'm optimistic about this direction. Finally, I don't have to be chained to short videos.

Finally, a platform is taking deep content seriously, short videos are killing the market Writing long articles can make money? This time X might really be serious A million-dollar pool sounds good, just wait and see how the distribution is handled It should have been done earlier, fragmented content is really everywhere Deep insights are valuable, starting to look forward to it The transparency of the revenue dashboard is increasing, I like this detail Short and quick content is already saturated, is the long-form content trend coming? If you can write, you can earn; without real skills, it's really tough Is X trying to replace YouTube? The effort is quite aggressive Supporting deep creation is a bold move; competition will become even fiercer

Long articles are finally making a comeback; the previous dominance of short videos was really annoying. --- Millions of dollars poured in; this wave of creator dividends is indeed different, but only those with real talent can truly benefit. --- Transparency in the revenue dashboard is a good thing, at least it clarifies where the money is coming from. --- Support for in-depth content? I’m optimistic, just worried it might become another "talking platform." --- Friends with real skills should take action; this is indeed an opportunity window. --- It's called the Year of Creators, but ultimately, traffic secrets still decide everything. --- Let's wait until the dashboard is launched; right now, it's all virtual. --- Finally, a platform recognizes in-depth content; this shift is quite good. --- Hearing about millions of dollars sounds great, but when divided among all creators, it’s just haha. --- X’s move was well played; anyway, I’ve started to take writing seriously.
