Cryptocurriences and NFTs have become increasingly mainstream, and despite market turbulence are a major part of many investors' portfolios. The Block aims to be a reliable and trusted voice, offering insight to those in the world of digital assets.
The Block stands out for the pedigree of journalists it employs. This includes former Business Insider journalist Frank Chaparro, who hosts The Block’s weekly podcast, and Editor-in-Chief Sarah Kopit, who is a former editor at Bloomberg. This has allowed the site to develop a reputation for focused and in-depth analysis and news.
In 2022, however, it was revealed that The Block had received significant funding from the FTX cryptocurrency exchange. This badly undermined the company's independence and damaged its reputation, leading to a reshuffle of leadership and an acquisition by Foresight Ventures. Since this shake-up, The Block has experienced growth in pageviews and a rise in unique users, indicating that faith has been restored in the publication.
