Outlet track record
DL News
crypto-industry, editorially independent
DL News was an independent crypto news outlet launched in 2022 as the editorial arm of DefiLlama, a DeFi analytics platform. It was staffed by a mix of crypto-native and mainstream financial journalists and focused on DeFi, crypto markets, and digital-asset regulation. It covered Trump administration crypto policy factually—reporting on deregulatory moves and the strategic Bitcoin reserve—without a discernible pro- or anti-administration tilt. The outlet ceased editorial operations in May 2026 and its website assets subsequently changed hands to unknown buyers.
Owned byOriginally the editorial arm of DefiLlama (operated via Llama Corp, a Dubai-based entity); after closure in May 2026, assets were sold to unidentified buyers with no disclosed affiliation
