A blockchain built for news.

PressChain is a purpose-built Layer 1 designed from the ground up for journalism. Capsules, evidence, TrustScore, validator bonds, outlet identity, and on-chain governance → one coherent stack, one purpose.

Architecture

Every layer has a job.

Click any layer to see what it does and why it exists.

Protocol modules

The on-chain modules that define how records, evidence, trust, and participation work.

Capsules→Evidence→TrustScore→Voting→Roles & bonds→

Media-native by design

Not a retrofit.

PressChain runs as its own network with native gas, native bonds, and a clique proof-of-authority validator set tuned for media records, so verification is cheap, fast, and built for how newsrooms actually publish.

Client-side trust

Your keys never touch our servers.

Every protocol action is signed in the user's wallet. PressChain stores no seed phrases, no private keys, and never signs on a user's behalf. The legacy custodial bridge is permanently retired.
