Inside the Minds of Crypto Reporters

Описание: Crypto isn’t just a technology story. It’s a story about legitimacy.

At Media Summit | NYC 2025, three of the most trusted reporters covering crypto (Nina Bambysheva @ Forbes, Leo Schwarz @ Fortune, and Yueqi Yang @ The Information) sat down for a rare, candid conversation about how crypto actually gets covered when the cameras are off and the hype fades.

Moderated by Dan Simon (Qwoted), this panel pulls back the curtain on the editorial judgment calls that shape crypto narratives and the responsibility journalists carry when coverage itself can create legitimacy.

In this episode, they unpack:

How reporters decide which crypto stories are systemically important vs. pure noise

Why media coverage confers legitimacy and why that’s dangerous if done carelessly

How skepticism can build credibility instead of burning sources

Why crypto is as much a regulatory innovation story as a tech one

What’s still underreported: scams, political influence, and power behind the scenes

How journalists try to avoid creating the next Sam Bankman-Fried

This is how serious journalists think about risk, power, and responsibility in one of the most volatile beats in modern business reporting.

If you want to understand crypto beyond price charts and press releases (and see how trust is actually built or lost), this conversation is essential.
