It's a free, independent media launched by 3 entrepreneurs passionate about the blockchain, crypto and Web 3 revolutions.
This free and independent media exists first through the launch of newsletters, one free, the other paid, and a presence on social networks. We deal with the general news of crypto-assets through journalistic investigations, interviews of influential personalities or testing systems for services carried out in complete independence.
We also rely on a network of recognized experts, in France and worldwide, to inform, enrich and complete our analyses. This information is processed in a journalistic manner, using different sources that are cross-referenced and approached neutrally. The Big Whale does not provide investment advice.
We are convinced that in the current context of explosion of uses, an expert and independent media is essential.
We want to bring clear and high value-added information to already experienced readers and allow everyone to understand the stakes and "get on the crypto train".
For all those who want to start this adventure, The Big Whale is the answer to "Where do I start?".
For several reasons:
1/ Because everyone appreciates whales, it is an animal that makes people dream, though we may not know it very well.
2/ Because it symbolizes longevity, resiliance, because Bitcoin, crypto-currencies or NFTs are a revolution that will last and transform our daily lives.
3/ Because whales are powerful carbon sinks(the equivalent of several thousand trees), which we often forget. The climate issue being an important topic in cryptocurrencies and the criticisms that are addressed to the sector, we also want to show that we take this topic seriously, without clichés or preconceptions.
Yes! that is the essential and indispensable value we bring to the table.
The Big Whale was founded by three people who financed it with their own money. To guarantee this independence, we need readers who pay for the information we will produce.
The Big Whale does not offer any affiliate links and does not sign any commercial partnership with companies that could be quoted in our articles. This choice allows us to provide 100% independent and conflict-free content. This is also the reason why our contents are not free.
We consider that you have to use cryptos on a daily basis to be able to talk about them with the best possible expertise. We will communicate here the crypto-assets held by the members of the editorial staff whose value exceeds 1000 euros.
To date, Raphael Bloch and Gregory Raymond each hold BTC, ETH and a lot of SHIB (we're kidding about the SHIB 😂)

If you pay in cryptocurrencies, you are likely to have to pay additional fees.
These fees correspond to the amount claimed by the protocol managers to validate your transaction on the blockchain. The amount varies according to the level of saturation of the network.
We advise you to avoid Ethereum to avoid paying the equivalent of several euros in network fees.
Not yet, unfortunately, but we will be implementing it soon. We're just starting, and we'll be adding to our offer as we go along. Students will soon benefit from a preferential rate.
