What crypto.news does

crypto.news is an independent digital media company that publishes a cryptocurrency and blockchain news outlet reachable globally through its owned website and a network of syndication partners including Google News, Bing News, Apple News, Cryptopanic, News360, NewsDog, and Steemit. The platform combines a continuous news feed covering Bitcoin, Ethereum, altcoins, DeFi, NFTs, regulation, meme coins, and broader blockchain developments with adjacent utility modules such as real-time price tracking, a Markets section, an educational Learn/glossary area, an industry Events Calendar, a Best Picks product-comparison section, and a Buy Crypto comparison service. Content is organized around keyword-tagged verticals (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Shiba Inu, Regulation, etc.) and recirculated through social channels (X, Telegram, LinkedIn, YouTube) and a weekly email newsletter.

The underlying technology is a web-based content management system paired with real-time cryptocurrency price indexes displayed across the site, mobile-responsive access, an RSS feed, and outbound syndication integrations. There is no disclosed proprietary platform layer, no SDK or API offering, and no native mobile application; distribution relies on the open web and third-party aggregators.

Commercially, crypto.news operates an asset-light advertising business with no paywall. Revenue is generated entirely from display advertising, sponsored editorial (listicles, press releases, sponsored articles, token ads, project reviews, opinion pieces), banner placements, newsletter sponsorship, and partner content monetizing an audience of roughly 10 million monthly page views. The legal entity is Gersen Limited, headquartered in Mahe, Seychelles, with operating presence in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The company is privately held, employs 11-50 staff, has raised no external institutional funding, and maintains a stated separation between editorial and business operations.
