What We Look For In You

Assessment

• As part of the application, we’re asking all interested candidates to submit a short 500–650 word draft script on the topic: What if Satoshi Nakamoto returns?

• We’re using this as a way to assess writing ability, clarity of thought, critical thinking, and understanding of the space.
• ✍️ If your draft is selected and we decide to edit and publish it on our YouTube channel, we’ll proceed with compensation based on your stated rate, upon mutual agreement.
