On September 25, Binance announced the launch of The Blockchain 100, an initiative aimed at recognizing the top 100 content creators within the cryptocurrency and blockchain industries. This news was recently reported by ForkLog, citing representatives from the platform.
The award encompasses seven categories specifically designed for authors of educational and analytical content. Binance is currently accepting applications, which will remain open until October 12, 2025. Participants have the opportunity to nominate themselves or other content creators for consideration.
Binance encourages a robust nomination process, emphasizing that “the more valid and diverse nominations you submit, the higher the chance for nominees to make the shortlist,” as stated on the award’s official page.
The evaluation criteria for nominees are comprehensive, focusing on several key aspects:
- Quantity and Diversity of Nominations: The number of nominations received and their varied sources will be crucial in the selection process.
- Measurable Impact: Metrics such as audience size and follower count will be taken into account.
- Engagement Metrics: This includes data on views, likes, and shares pertaining to the creators’ content.
- Industry Contribution: Nominees’ efforts in promoting technology adoption, shaping public opinion, and supporting the community will also be evaluated.
Once the initial selection is complete, candidates will move on to a community voting phase that is scheduled to take place from October 15 to 26 on the Binance Square platform. Importantly, only verified users of the Binance exchange will be eligible to vote.
The winners of The Blockchain 100 will be announced on November 3, 2025, with a formal award ceremony set to occur on December 3 during Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai. Winners will receive engraved medals as a token of recognition for their contributions to the space.
