Blockworks

Blockworks is a financial media and data company focused on the digital assets industry. Founded in 2018 by Jason Yanowitz and Michael Ippolito and headquartered in New York City, it produces news, research, newsletters, podcasts, and live events targeting institutional investors and professionals in the cryptocurrency sector.

The company operates one of the largest podcast networks in crypto, publishing hundreds of episodes per year across titles covering Bitcoin, Solana, macro finance, and DeFi. Its newsletter portfolio includes several publications with a combined subscriber base in the hundreds of thousands. Blockworks also runs flagship industry events including the Digital Asset Summit, which brings together institutional investors, asset managers, and policymakers from traditional and digital finance.

In June 2026, Blockworks acquired Messari, a crypto data and market intelligence platform, combining editorial and events capabilities with on-chain data coverage, APIs, and institutional research tools. The combined company covers more than 40,000 assets and serves investors, exchanges, regulators, and developers.
