Welcome to the epistemic revolution.
Ideamarket allows the public to establish credibility
without relying on corporate media.
Public narratives shouldn't be decided by private interests.
Ideamarket takes the power back.
How it works
An Unstoppable Marketplace
"Rationality is risk management." —Taleb
Publications are ranked by amount invested.
Increased trust leads to increased visibility, and credibility backed by public risk — not by corporations.
Publications are impossible to remove from the list.
Ideamarket runs on a distributed network called Ethereum — like Bitcoin, there are no central servers that governments can shut down.
Top publications earn interest from deposits on the others.
The most trusted publications provide passive income for their holders.
Imagine a site like Reddit, only:
1) Upvotes are bets
2) No admins, mods, algorithms, shadowbans, or centralized servers
3) Can't be stopped
Why it works
The Epistemic Revolution
When seeking narratives, we naturally seek authority.
When seeking investments, we naturally seek value.
Therefore, the best way to choose public narratives is with investment.
Create productive discourse
by making mutual understanding a financial necessity
Undermine propaganda
by moving money (and trust) from platforms that imitate insight to those that truly provide it
Solve fake news effortlessly
by making credibility extremely expensive to fake
The End of Fake News—Corporate and Otherwise

What to do next
1. Buy tokens.
The first 10,000 are $1 each, and the price increases by $0.01 per 100 thereafter. [How?]
2. Explain to your audience how Ideamarket amplifies their voice.
Offer to match your audience's purchases up to $10,000 per month to show your commitment to earning trust long-term. Ask them to download the Ideamarket browser extension. We've provided articles here to help.
3. Occasionally sell tokens to fund operations.
As demand for your token increases, its value will too — turning trust in your brand into effortless income.
| Political donations | Ideamarket |
|---|---|
| Never get money back | Get some money back any time, potentially a profit |
| Stops mattering after the election | Never stops mattering |
| Vulnerable to sabotage by established media | Defines "established media" |
| Uncensorable | Unpartisan | Unstoppable |
|---|---|---|
| A listed publication can never be removed from the global conversation. | Idea markets don't care what you believe—only that you believe it enough to risk money. | Idea markets makes it prohibitively expensive to control the narrative by force. |

“If we care for certain things, we must in honesty hazard some hope in their defense. A good deal of what we value most, whether openly or in silence, clearly or confusedly, is necessarily common. These are things that affect us all, and we can only preserve or neglect them together.” —Jedediah Purdy, For Common Things
