Exploring The Block
Exploring the Block is a media company founded by Vince Caruso and Steve Simon that delves into companies dealing with blockchain technology. Caruso and Simon have previous experience in the media outlet newtothestreet.com which has a similar model to Exploring the Block but with more of a focus on traditional investment markets. The main media format is video interviews with the founders or CEO of the companies driving the blockchain projects. Exploring the Block aims to delve into the company through the perspective of the founders and team. With most media in the cryptocurrency industry being focused on written formats, this provides a competitive advantage to Exploring the Block. In addition to this, Exploring the Block also have a podcast, a blog, and organise events. The video format has been broadcasted on a number of media outlets networks including Bloomberg TV, Fox Business, and Ion TV. The blog is hosted on the website while the podcast is hosted on a separate website at ogpodcastnetwork.com. The team built for Exploring the Block has reputable professional experience in areas necessary for the success of a media company. Both the founders have important experience in newtothestreet.com and other team members also have important experience in sales, marketing, finance, economics, and technology. The team built is one of the key strengths behind the company. One of the limitations is that it has only been operating since 2018 giving it a short period of existence and a small following on social media.
