Arena Radio Goes All-In on Podcasts: First Listen-to-Earn Service Launches Worldwide
Summary
Arena Radio launched a new podcast division worldwide that replaces ads and subscriptions with a decentralized listen-to-earn model. The platform pays creators $0.03 per full episode and rewards listeners $0.01 per completed episode, which can be used as merchandise discounts or converted into the platform's $XRU stablecoin. Creators keep 100% of net profits from in-house branded apparel, receive free production tools, and get one-click distribution to over 20 global podcast platforms. The service becomes broadly available May 28, 2026 (currently invite-only) and the company is offering $5 million in early-adopter incentives over the next 90 days.
