What WikiBit does
WikiBit is a privately-held Hong Kong-headquartered operator of a global blockchain supervision and query platform that catalogs cryptocurrency exchanges, projects, and tokens and assigns each entity a proprietary 0–10 WikiBit Score based on years in operation, license types held (MTL, EMI, Digital Currency, MSB, Investment Advisory, NMLS), license revocations, and suspicious-overrun flags. The platform is delivered through a freemium web product (wikibit.com plus 25+ country-specific ccTLD regional sites such as hk, tw, us, kr, uk, jp, id, vn, au, sg), a mobile application (iOS/Android), an 11-language UI, and supplementary subdomains including news.wikibit.com, q.wikibit.com (market data), biz.wikibit.com (Enterprise Edition / 天眼号), and v.wikibit.com (Official Verification). A differentiating on-the-ground Field Survey service sends staff to physically verify the offices of exchanges in markets such as Malaysia, Japan, the US, and Australia, publishing photo evidence and a Danger flag when no real office is found.
The platform serves two primary customer groups: retail crypto traders (free query users across 27+ markets) and crypto exchanges, token projects, and KOLs (paying customers for listings, verification, brand presence, and event sponsorship). Revenue is generated through five parallel streams — display advertising on the homepage and category pages, paid "Submit for Listing" inclusion fees, an annual Enterprise Edition (天眼号) SaaS subscription, Official Verification (v.wikibit.com) professional services, and WikiEXPO offline event sponsorship and tickets. The platform also operates a WikiBit News wire, a Live streaming module, an Education portal, a Community/Forum/Marketplace, and a Telegram support group used for scam-victim escalation. Go-to-market combines SEO-led long-tail acquisition on exchange/token/regulator pages, organic social (Twitter @WikiBitOfficial, Telegram), event-driven demand gen via WikiEXPO, and a bottom-of-funnel paid listing and affiliate/referral motion featuring Coinbase, Binance, OKX, KuCoin, MEXC, BitMart, Bakkt, Hotbit, Uphold, Paybis, MinerGate, TradeOgre, Crypto Apex, and CoinFlip in a Link Referral block.

WikiBit is a global blockchain supervision and query platform that catalogs cryptocurrency exchanges, tokens, and projects and assigns each a proprietary 0–10 WikiBit Score derived from regulatory license metadata (MTL, EMI, Digital Currency, MSB, Investment Advisory, NMLS), license revocations, and risk indicators. It exposes three core databases — Exchange, Token, and Project — plus on-the-ground Field Survey office verifications, a user complaint/comment stream, a 7x24 newswire, market data, and a Community/Forum. The platform is free for end users, with monetization from paid listings, advertising, Official Verification, and a separate Enterprise Edition (天眼号) for businesses and KOLs.
Product overview
WikiBit is a single unified global blockchain supervision and query platform, not a multi-product company: the wikibit.com web property and the WikiBit mobile APP together expose one underlying platform with multiple integrated modules rather than separately licensed products. At its core are three interconnected databases — the Exchange Database (with the WikiBit Score leaderboard at /en/wikibitranking/), the Token Database, and the Project Database — each enriched by the User Comments/Reviews module and the Field Survey (实勘) on-site verification service. Around them sit content and data modules: News, Education, 7×24 Newsletter/Live News, Calendar, Announcements, Market/Quotes, Big Data/Data Center, and the Global Blockchain Regulatory Dynamics & Popularity analytics. Community is served by Community/Forum/Marketplace (集市), Live Streaming/Live Room, and the WikiEXPO events sub-brand (wikiexpo.com). Two ancillary products extend the platform commercially: the WikiBit Enterprise Edition (天眼号) at biz.wikibit.com for organizations and KOLs, and WikiBit Official Verification (官方验证) at v.wikibit.com. The platform is delivered in 12+ languages (Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, English, Russian, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Spanish, Portuguese, Filipino, plus more) and localized across 20+ country-specific domains (hk, tw, us, kr, uk, jp, id, vn, au, sg, th, cy, de, ru, ph, nz, ua, in, fr, es, pt, my, ng, kh, za).

WikiBit competitors and assessment

Its focus on AML, sanctions screening, and transaction monitoring overlaps with WikiBit's exchange risk assessment mission, though it targets institutional rather than retail customers.
- CoinDesk: CoinDesk is a leading crypto media and information platform providing news, research, and data. It overlaps with WikiBit's news and consumer information offerings, though it has stronger editorial brand recognition in Western markets.
- CoinTelegraph: CoinTelegraph is a major cryptocurrency news outlet covering exchanges, regulation, and blockchain developments. Comparable to WikiBit's news and education modules, though it operates primarily as a media company rather than a data platform.
- Decrypt: Decrypt is a crypto news and education media company covering the digital asset industry. Its news, education, and consumer audience overlap with WikiBit's content modules, particularly its newswire and education portal.
