The more popular the subject of cryptoeconomics becomes, the more websites appear that provide readers with information about the state of affairs in the crypto industry.

WHY DO THEY NEED MEDIA STATUS?
During the study of the crypto information field, analysts from Bitnewstoday.com noticed that there is very little news on cryptoeconomic issues coming via the Google and Yandex newsletters.
These mailings usually contain 2-3 news, while cryptoeconomic media outlets publish them daily. In fact, they are only seen within the crypto community, since almost all crypto sites are not indexed by aggregators because they are not media. As a result, the mass audience will learn about cryptoeconomics through the official major media, which don't often pay due attention to this subject.

According to experts, the level of awareness about crypto-economics in Russia (especially in the regions) is extremely low. Results of the NAFI survey conducted in July 2017 showed that 72% of Russians did not hear anything about the cryptocurrency. Only 12% of respondents said they were well informed on this issue, and only one in 100 respondents was a user of digital currency.

Therefore, media outlets that help ordinary citizens navigate in the new industry and avoid falling into the hands of scammers are of great importance. Read more on:
