Digital Assets Reporter - Americas

As digital assets reporter/editor for CoinDesk, you will be part of a team covering the fast-exploding realm of cryptocurrencies for our readers around the world. This particular role would focus on the digital assets beyond bitcoin, consisting of some 10,000-plus cryptocurrencies, tokens and blockchain-based securities with a total market value of more than $1 trillion. The coverage area includes the native tokens of blockchains like Ethereum and Avalanche along with payments tokens, decentralized finance (DeFi), stablecoins, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and tokenized securities. These digital assets are at the heart of what many industry experts, analysts and investors believe to be a radically new financial and monetary system in the making. Your mission: to ensure CoinDesk readers are fully up to date whenever and wherever something happens in these broader digital-asset markets, and that all content is accurate, punctual and written in CoinDesk style. This position would come with some editing responsibilities, so the right candidate will have experience as an editor and should have a proven track record as a leader/self-starter, with the ability to confidently and consistently publish clean copy.
