I wonder how many people are aware of the editorial policies of the media they read, especially when it comes to cryptocurrency news.
CoinDesk is a media platform that has earned a reputation for its investigative journalism. They adhere to quite strict editorial standards, and this is not just empty words. The company has adopted a clear set of principles aimed at ensuring the integrity of publications, editorial independence, and objectivity. The media transparency law, so to speak, they apply to themselves voluntarily.
But here’s what’s interesting — CoinDesk is owned by Bullish, a global digital asset platform focused on institutional investors. Bullish provides market infrastructure and informational services, and the company itself actively invests in digital asset businesses. So, CoinDesk employees, including journalists, may receive compensation based on Bullish’s shares.
This is a case where understanding the ownership structure of a media resource is important for evaluating its content. Not to doubt its quality, but simply to have a complete picture of how the cryptocurrency industry and media in general operate.
