So we don't have to be permanent article writer for cointelegraph? I mean if a freelancer writer comeup with interesting article he can be team of writer. Asking in thread to not flood your  inbox.

Yeah, that wouldn't be a problem. We aren't forcing you to write articles, that's why we prefer to pay individually for every article.
But we also have an option for those who are willing to take a commitment - if you agree to write not less than 30 articles in a month we will increase your pay.

Depends on the article. If it's breaking news - it can be as short as 100-150 words. But generally news story should be 300-500 words long.
Everyone who can write an interesting story is eligible to apply, don't have to be a native English speaker - even right now there are authors in our team from Africa, India, Latin America and Europe. Not all of them have perfect English - that's why we have editors who help them with their articles.

But if you are a native English speaker with a degree in journalism we will be happy to take you in too  ;D

Great job!

What article are you referring to?
Usually we are fact checking our articles before publishing. If there has been a mistake - please tell me where so I can tell the editor to correct it.

What's your blog?
But yeah, it doesn't really matter if your stories where published somewhere or not, the only thing that matters are they interesting or not, and can you write something interesting for us.

So yeah sure - send them in, if our editor like it - he'll get back on you asking for more.

No particular criteria. Anyone who's able to write an interesting story fits. Samples of work would be nice, but our editor would ask you to write a test article anyway.
