Forbes CryptoMarkets: Aiming High… Really, Really High
Mike Federle, CEO of Forbes Media, was quite enthusiastic about the launch of Forbes CryptoMarkets. According to his vision, this new branch would allow Forbes to reach an even larger audience, consolidating the business and supporting the growth of the ecosystem:
“Forbes provides the most comprehensive coverage of the cryptocurrency and blockchain marketplaces of any major media business brand in the world. Forbes CryptoMarkets, a new licensed business, represents a natural extension of our powerful brand into a new venture that promises to deliver immense value to investors, traders and market watchers.”
In the same way, Chien Lee, Chairman of NewCity Capital and Chairman of Forbes CryptoMarkets, described the ambitious objectives of this new initiative, which seeks to position itself as the “definitive resource for everything crypto and blockchain”:

A challenging goal, but if anyone can do it, it’s Forbes.
