CriptoNoticias is a digital media specialized in disseminating information and educating the Spanish-speaking world about everything related to Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, web3, DeFi, NFT and more derived technologies. Héctor Cárdenas, its founder, describes that the project has 30 workers including engineers, graduates in Literature, political scientists, philosophers, social communicators and students. It emerged in 2015 thanks to two fundamental elements: the knowledge in Bitcoin that had been accumulating for two years through the mining process and the lack of serious sources in Spanish that spoke on the subject. The team, distributed throughout Venezuela, Panama, Argentina, Spain, makes possible more than a million monthly views with content from: Technology, Markets, Community, Policy and Regulation, Education, among others. The high traffic in this market niche allows them to offer advertising services in the form of banners, press releases and sponsored content. Although most of the coverage happens on the Internet where they interact with relevant actors to obtain information and conduct interviews, they also do extensive in-person coverage of events, such as the LaBitConf, in several of its editions, the Blockchain Summit Latam, also in several of its editions, or the FinTech Conference 2018 on November 15 in Mexico City, among many others of a nature. international such as The Bitcoin Conference in Miami and others.
