Crypto-industry trade outlet (U.S.-based, no clear partisan lean)

Owned byFounded in 2017 by poker player and YouTuber Doug Polk and Alex Moskov. Polk announced in February 2025 that they had sold it. I could not find the buyer's name in the sources I checked.

FundingMost likely advertising, affiliate links with crypto exchanges and products, and sponsored content, which is typical for crypto news sites. I could not confirm its current revenue model, so treat this as unverified.

Background

CoinCentral launched in October 2017, founded by Doug Polk, a professional poker player and YouTuber, and Alex Moskov. It is based in Austin, Texas. It describes itself as an independent publication that covers cryptocurrency, blockchain, and digital finance, and it promises 'clarity over hype, integrity over clicks.' It has claimed more than 650,000 monthly readers in 180+ countries. Its content mixes news, price and market coverage, and beginner guides and reviews. In February 2025, Polk posted that he and Moskov had sold the site. The buyer was not named in the sources I consulted, so its current ownership and any editorial changes since the sale are unverified. As with many crypto media sites, its commercial ties to exchanges and token projects may shape its coverage, and readers should check for sponsored or affiliate content. I found no major documented controversies or fact-check disputes about it. I also did not review its recent coverage of the administration in detail, so the 'mostly neutral' stance is a general assessment and not a measured one.
