Introducing Messari Hub: A community-driven crypto research marketplace
Since day one, Messari’s mission has been to bring transparency and trust to the cryptoeconomy. By providing data and research tools that offer sophisticated and informed insights, our products offer guidance to crypto professionals to better understand this revolutionary new asset class. With thousands of new cryptoassets entering the market yearly, it can be difficult for crypto audiences to gather trusted research, asset projects to educate the community on their value, and for analysts to find a trusted forum to display their findings.
Our latest offering, Messari Hub, aims to solve this ecosystem problem by offering a community-driven marketplace that provides independent crypto research, written by qualified contributing analysts and funded by industry-leading crypto organizations.
The Hub matches contributing analysts with various crypto organizations that wish to fund independent research on established or emerging projects. The reports are written by qualified Hub analysts, edited, and distributed by Messari without project influence or oversight to provide full trust and transparency.
