Even though blockchain technology remains at an early stage of development, this chapter calls for considering its potential impact on the future of the internet, which by extension could have long-term consequences on journalism. Research on blockchain’s potential impact on journalism remains relatively thin despite the major developments taking place in the blockchain space, bringing blockchain closer to mass adoption. This work contributes to this field by providing a high-level overview of the topic mainly targeting journalism scholars and practitioners but could be useful for other readers as well. It starts by highlighting some similarities between today’s blockchain status and the early internet and then provides a high-level non-technical overview of blockchain technology for beginners in this field. The main contribution of the chapter, however, is in presenting journalistic use cases in five domains: (1) verifying provenance, (2) investigative journalism, (3) content monetization and dissemination, (4) intellectual property and archiving, and (5) freedom of expression. It is hoped that readers would use this work as a primer to understand the potential changes that blockchain-driven Web3 could have on journalism in the future by drawing comparisons to the role the internet played in journalism after it went mainstream at the start of the century.
