The Cymbal team is made up of certified tech news junkies. We’ve previously built news products at Flipboard, we’ve collaborated with news organizations like Decrypt, and we obsessively seek out and share articles, tweets, and other updates with each other and amongst the various business and tech communities we’re a part of.

Not surprisingly, much of the news we spend time with these days is crypto / web3 related given our passion for this space. And our daily journey trying to keep up with all the web3 developments around the world always involves two tasks: finding interesting news, and understanding that news.

Our mission at Cymbal is to build human readable blockchain products to make crypto and web3 easier. Today, we’re excited to apply that mission to crypto and web3 news! If you visit Cymbal.xyz, you’ll now see a revamped homepage that aggregates and ranks the most interesting news articles about blockchain topics ranging from Solana transaction volumes to new airdrops and token launches, and of course NFTs.

Like Techmeme (one of our favorite news products), we’ve created a unified feed of news curated from hundreds of the best web3 content sources online like the aforementioned Decrypt, CoinDesk, The Block and many more leading outlets. We then use Cymbal AI to process these news articles and enhance them with real time information from our data platform. So in addition to providing a single place to stay current on what’s happening in web3, you can also drill in and explore further with interactive charts, stats, summaries, and other proprietary insights.

Visit Cymbal.xyz today and let us help you both find interesting crypto news and also better understand what’s happening with that news.
