Zerohedge is a financial news and market commentary outlet covering macro markets, Wall Street, and cryptocurrency, affiliated with ABC Media Ltd. It was founded by Daniel Ivandjiiski in January 2009, with all in-house content published under the collective pseudonym Tyler Durden, a character from the novel and film Fight Club.

Zerohedge brought the practice of flash trading to public attention in 2009 through posts alleging that Goldman Sachs had unfair trading advantages via flash order data access, a development that prompted Senator Charles Schumer to call on the SEC to ban flash trades. The outlet maintains a dedicated crypto section covering Bitcoin, digital assets, stablecoins, and broader cryptocurrency market developments. In February 2020, the account was temporarily suspended after publishing a COVID-19 article that included personal information of a Chinese researcher at the Wuhan Institute of Virology; Twitter reinstated the account in June 2020, acknowledging an enforcement error. In June 2020, Zerohedge was also banned from Google's advertising platform after Google determined that comments on its articles violated policies against dangerous and derogatory content, following research by the Center for Countering Digital Hate. Separately, founder Daniel Ivandjiiski was barred from the securities industry by FINRA in 2008 for insider trading, having profited $780 from a trade while employed at Miller Buckfire; he did not admit or deny wrongdoing per FINRA. Zerohedge has 3,323,173 followers as of August 2026 on X and has published 635,542 posts. It has been mentioned by 1,273 accounts, with 7,211 total mentions.
