Roundtable launches DeFi media platform for instant journalist payments, $1B partnership transforms 100M-user ecosystem

Roundtable, an AI-powered media operating system, has deployed real-time cryptocurrency payments for journalists through a Coinbase-integrated platform, marking a significant shift from traditional 90-day payment cycles. The milestone caps months of major announcements from the platform, which in September secured a transformative $1 billion, 10-year agreement with Paradium.AI (formerly The Arena Group) to migrate approximately 21 major media brands and 100 million monthly consumers onto its MediaOS infrastructure.
