Swan and Coinbase Recognized For Leading World Onto Bitcoin (and The Bugle)
The Bugle is pleased to announce that is has given both Swan Bitcoin and Coinbase the coveted "Best for Bitcoin" award to recognize their unmatched proof of work in onboarding the world onto Bitcoin and perhaps just as importantly, The Bugle.
Coinbase was founded in 2012 and has been amongst the leading Bitcoin exchanges for over a decade. Swan has only been around since about 2019-2020 but their narrow focus on Bitcoin has been an anchor of demand for the currency as Coinbase began accelerating efforts to market the broader cryptocurrency industry.
"If it wasn't for Swan and Coinbase, who knows where we'd be." Bugle founder and editor-in-chief Richard Greaser said, implying Bitcoin based media outlets such as The Bugle owe their success to Coinbase and Swan popularizing Bitcoin by providing financial services, sponsoring podcasts, saturating social media with Bitcoin advertising, and helping Bitcoin make headlines by crashing during times of price volatility.
"No companies have made more people cynical about the Bitcoin industry than Coinbase and Swan. Without them, outlets such as The Bugle probably wouldn't even exist today."
A professor of Bitcoin and crypto cultural studies at Nakamoto University says people who invest in Bitcoin tend to be wary of government overreach, distrusting of banks and the legacy financial system, and tend to be cynical about the traditional civic and financial institutions we have today. The professor noted, "No companies have made more people cynical about the Bitcoin industry than Coinbase and Swan. Without them, outlets such as The Bugle probably wouldn't even exist today."
The Bugle's mysterious founder agreed. "We owe our success to Cory (Klippsten, Swan CEO) and Brian (Armstrong, Coinbase CEO)" Richard Greaser said. "We are very pleased to recognize these companies and to give them this prestigious award. It's another credential they can add to their collection. The Bugle looks forward to Swan and Coinbase driving more and more subscribers to The Bugle in the years to come."
