Welcome to Decipher the Future, a publication designed to highlight what’s trending in the Algorand ecosystem. The blog features content from leaders, founders, and influencers throughout the Algorand ecosystem–perhaps someone like yourself!

Everyone in the Algorand community is invited to submit your product story, thought leadership article, tutorial, video, or other post for inclusion.

Types of Content

Welcome contributions include:

  • Articles and interviews highlighting the amazing projects being built and launched on Algorand, and the builders behind them
  • Thought leadership pieces on everything Algorand-related (from new use cases to community proposals), as well as broader perspective on the future of blockchain
  • Developer tips and tutorials
  • Plus, the core Algorand team will use this space to share product updates and future roadmaps

Original Content

Posts should be 100% original content. That means content that’s not been published previously, whether online or in print.

Word Count

As long as the article covers its topic completely, it can be as short as 500 words, or as long as 3,000 words.

Formatting

Short, punchy paragraphs are preferred over long, rambling diatribes. Some best practices:

  • Paragraphs should typically be 1–3 sentences long.
  • Sentences should be short too: shoot for 15 words or less. Longer sentences? Break ’em up.
  • Bullet points and lists are always an excellent choice.
  • Use plenty of headings and subheadings to break up the piece and direct the flow.
  • Any included hyperlinks should add value.
  • Please make suggestions for images or videos to include with the post.

Editorial Policy

This is a community-driven blog, but the editors reserve the right to do light editing of any published pieces for clarity and grammar.

Submissions

Please submit as a Google Doc. Submissions should be sent to DecipherTheFuture@algorand.com

Publish Time

Because of the volume of requests received, not all submitted pieces will be published. Generally, you can expect to receive a response within one week.

Decipher the Future is a community-driven publication for and by the Algorand ecosystem. Send in your project highlights, news, opinions & more for inclusion now!
