This particular role would focus on the digital assets beyond bitcoin, consisting of some 10,000-plus cryptocurrencies, tokens and blockchain-based securities with a total market value of more than $1 trillion. The coverage area includes the native tokens of blockchains like Ethereum and Cardano along with payments tokens, decentralized finance (DeFi), stablecoins, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and tokenized securities. These digital assets are at the heart of what many industry experts, analysts and investors believe to be a radically new financial and monetary system in the making. The position also comes with some editing responsibilities on regional and topical basis.
Your mission: to ensure CoinDesk readers are fully up to date whenever and wherever something happens in these broader digital-asset markets, and that all content is accurate, punctual and written in CoinDesk style. This position would come with some editing responsibilities, so the right candidate will have experience as an editor and should have a proven track record as a leader/self-starter, with the ability to confidently and consistently publish clean copy.
You could be chasing and explaining a market move one minute, getting the inside scoop on a promising new blockchain protocol the next and being first to identify a new trend after that, all while trying to build an unrivaled network of sources that will help you make the crypto market transparent to readers in easy-to-grasp prose. A high energy news hound with a keen understanding of markets who has a way of building and maintaining sources, plays well with others, communicates clearly, and wants to win.
