Understanding where Blockworks began helps explain who we are today — and where we’re headed.
Founded in 2018 by Jason Yanowitz and Michael Ippolito, Blockworks started as an events company bringing institutional investors into the emerging blockchain ecosystem. What began as small industry meetups has since grown into a crypto data and information platform serving professionals, investors, and institutions worldwide.
Today, our offerings span institutional-grade data and research from top crypto analysts, alongside trusted news and podcasts. We continue to convene the industry through high-impact events, including our flagship Digital Asset Summit.
Throughout our journey, we’ve remained true to our founding principles: delivering exceptional information, fostering genuine community, and upholding integrity in everything we do.
Now a remote-first team spread across multiple countries, we are united by our mission to make crypto more transparent.
