About CoinDesk's Twitter Score
CoinDesk is a crypto news, events, data, and indices publisher, founded by Shakil Khan in May 2013 as a Bitcoin resource and news site. CoinDesk's Twitter Score is 958 out of 1000 (an Excellent rating) as of July 2026, placing it at rank #28 (top 0.1%) out of 389,201 accounts tracked. With a score above 900, CoinDesk ranks among only 36 accounts to cross that threshold on the platform.
CoinDesk was previously affiliated with Digital Currency Group, which acquired it in January 2016. Bullish Group completed an all-cash acquisition of 100% of CoinDesk from Digital Currency Group in November 2023, with Fortune reporting the purchase price was close to $75 million, and CoinDesk operates as an independent subsidiary under that ownership. Sara Stratoberdha was appointed CEO in February 2024 as part of a restructuring under Bullish ownership.
CoinDesk's editorial record includes a significant scoop in November 2022, when its reporter Ian Allison published an analysis of Alameda Research's balance sheet that preceded FTX's liquidity crisis and bankruptcy filing, with CNN crediting the story with helping uncover alleged wrongdoing at FTX. In December 2024, Bullish ownership ordered the removal of a CoinDesk article about Tron founder Justin Sun following complaints from Sun's team, a move that prompted the resignation of the editorial independence committee chair and the dismissal of the editor-in-chief and deputy editors-in-chief.
CoinDesk launched its Bitcoin Price Index in September 2013 and the CoinDesk 20 Index on January 12, 2024. It acquired cryptocurrency data analytics firm TradeBlock in January 2021 and blockchain data platform Lawnmower in 2017, and operates the Consensus annual crypto industry event. CoinDesk reports 5.7 million average monthly viewers, more than 11,000 Consensus event attendees, and more than 50 crypto journalists on staff, with 3,820,697 followers as of July 2026 and 142,084 posts published. Its associated accounts and products include CoinDesk Research and TradeBlock.
CoinDesk has been mentioned by 6,169 accounts, with 65,684 total mentions across the platform.
