Just found out that CoinDesk, one of the biggest crypto news outlets, is actually owned by Bullish, this institutional digital asset platform that's publicly traded on NYSE. They hold preferred stock in the company, which is pretty interesting from a crypto stock structure perspective. And get this - CoinDesk journalists can receive equity compensation from Bullish, so there's definitely some financial ties there. They do have editorial policies to maintain independence, but it's one of those things where you wonder how much that really matters when the parent company is also a major player in the digital assets space. Makes you think about what you're reading when crypto media covers certain topics. The whole setup is pretty transparent about it though, which I guess is better than hiding it.
