PANews reported on January 17th that X Creators is piloting a new initiative, offering a $1 million prize for the best article in the next selection cycle to double support for creators on the platform in their strongest writing areas. The goal for 2026 is to recognize high-value, high-impact content that shapes conversations, leads news, and drives cultural development. Articles must be original, at least 1000 words long, and will be judged primarily based on their exposure on the "Home Timeline." Participation is limited to US users only, and content that violates platform policies, contains hate speech, is fraudulent, or manipulative is disqualified.
