About db's Twitter Score
Db is a pseudonymous crypto news publisher who founded DB News and DB Newswire. Db's Twitter Score is 769 out of 1000 (an Excellent rating) as of August 2026, placing at rank #76 (top 0.1%) out of 483,944 accounts tracked on this platform. Db has built an audience of 1,001,636 followers as of August 2026 across 11,829 posts.
Db's primary service, DB News (dbnews.com), is a real-time news feed and API built for trading desks, curating sources across crypto, central banks, geopolitics, energy, rates, FX, and macro data to deliver trader-focused alerts ahead of mainstream wires. It offers a 14-day free trial with web app and API access, and accepts anonymous news tips through encrypted channels on Signal and Telegram, positioning it as a source-protective outlet for crypto journalism.
Db also founded DB Newswire, a Telegram-based crypto news service that publishes headlines before Twitter, daily news recaps, and weekly and daily previews focused exclusively on crypto, with a 7-day free trial available. Db additionally runs the Crypto News Rundown, a Substack newsletter at tier10k.substack.com aggregating daily crypto news from sources including Reuters and Bloomberg.
Db's X account was compromised in March 2025 despite Yubikey 2FA being enabled. The unauthorized posts falsely claimed the TRUMP token would gain real utility and falsely reported a BlackRock iShares spot HYPE ETF application, triggering a roughly 21% pump in TRUMP coin and a spike in HYPE before the posts were identified as false. A trader lost $26,820 USDC within two minutes as a direct result of acting on the false TRUMP token information. Db publicly stated the account was obviously hacked and urged followers not to trust any messages during that period.
Db is mentioned by 256 accounts, with 518 total mentions across the platform.
