About us

Behind the scenes of the media

What is The Big Whale?

It is a free, independent media launched by 3 entrepreneurs passionate about the blockchain, crypto and Web3 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 with influential personalities or even tests of services carried out in complete independence.

We also rely on a network of recognized experts, in France and in the world, to feed, enrich, complete our analyses. This information is treated in a journalistic manner, from different sources that are cross-checked, and approached in a neutral manner. The Big Whale does not provide investment advice.
