Introduction to CoinDesk
CoinDesk is a reputable and award-winning media outlet that specializes in covering news and developments within the cryptocurrency industry. Our team of journalists upholds a strict set of editorial policies to ensure accurate and unbiased reporting.
Acquisition by Bullish Group
In November 2023, CoinDesk was acquired by the Bullish Group, the parent company of Bullish, a regulated digital assets exchange. The Bullish Group is majority-owned by Block.one, with both companies having interests in various blockchain and digital asset ventures, as well as holding significant amounts of digital assets such as bitcoin.
Editorial Independence
Despite the acquisition, CoinDesk continues to operate as an independent subsidiary with its own editorial committee in place to safeguard journalistic independence. It is important to note that CoinDesk employees, including journalists, may receive options in the Bullish Group as part of their compensation packages.
