CryptoSlate first went live in December 2017, aiming to offer comprehensive insights into the evolving world of crypto and decentralized finance.

Our team spans across continents, including the United States, Europe and Asia.

CryptoSlate is a for-profit business that aims to provide cryptocurrency enthusiasts a snapshot of the entire market space. This includes news, real-time market data, a directory of people, companies, products, and event listings.

CryptoSlate offers several advertising packages in order to cover the costs of technology (servers, platforms, software, etc.), original and investigative journalism, data research and media research, office rent and utilities, legal and accounting costs, business insurance, employee salaries and contractor wages, and the cost of listing events. CryptoSlate does not use any revenue/proceeds to engage in any cryptocurrency investing.

These advertisements are disclosed directly to the reader through a disclaimer, announcement, or eye-catching design. CryptoSlate aims to ensure that our readers understand the nature of the business being done on the website.

CryptoSlate attempts to screen all advertisers, but it is, of course, impossible to catch all bad actors. CryptoSlate refuses to engage with advertisers that guarantee returns on investment, advertisers for pump-and-dump schemes, or advertisers that otherwise seem harmful or dangerous to the blockchain community.

If you have any questions, concerns, or comments, please contact us and we will do our best to respond to you as quickly as possible.

We follow a rigorous editorial policy emphasizing trust, transparency, and journalistic integrity. To learn more about how we uphold these values, visit our editorial policy page.
