X awards 1 million USD for the best article

We are experimenting with a bold new move: awarding $1 million to the Best Article in the upcoming reward cycle. This is not just a prize, but a clear statement of what we value most — the power of the written word.

We continue to invest heavily in what creators do best: producing in-depth articles with sharp perspectives and genuine value for the community. Content that not only attracts views but also shapes conversations, opens new information, and influences popular culture.

Looking ahead to 2026, our goal is to honor works with significant impact, reflecting intelligence, engagement, and responsibility of the writers. If your article has the potential to steer public opinion, create change, and leave a lasting mark, we want to see and recognize it.
