As a reporter on CoinDesk’s Markets team, you will play a key role in covering fast-growing cryptocurrency and digital-asset markets during U.S. hours. This includes not just bitcoin and Ethereum’s ether, but tokens across the entire range of crypto sectors. We also cover news and competition among cryptocurrency exchanges and exchange-traded funds.
Your mission: to ensure CoinDesk readers are fully up-to-date whenever and wherever something happens in cryptocurrency markets, and that all content is accurate, punctual and written in CoinDesk style.
You may be writing about why bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets are up or talking to experts about where the markets are headed next. You’ll scour blockchain networks for data showing where investors and traders are moving their money while writing about emerging trends and trying to publish market-moving scoops. You’ll write about digital tokens issued by tech companies developing new applications to run on blockchain networks or designing automated trading and lending platforms that might someday replace banks and Wall Street firms.
The key is to have an insatiable curiosity, a desire to be first, and a willingness to hustle – a sincere interest to be on the front lines of covering what is by many accounts the world’s hottest industry at what could be a historical moment in the evolution of finance and monetary economics.
CoinDesk Inc and CoinDesk Indices Inc. are committed to offering competitive compensation and benefits. The anticipated base salary for this position is $90,000 - $115,000 + discretionary annual target bonus + benefits. Offered salary may vary by geographic location, including city and state, and will be reflective of job-related knowledge, skills and commensurate experience.
