Most investor relations systems weren’t built for onchain businesses.

In traditional markets, IR has become a box-ticking exercise with enormous overhead. It relies on static reporting, delayed disclosures, and fragmented data sources. It’s gotten to the point where even the SEC is questioning the benefit of requiring public companies to do quarterly reporting.

Onchain businesses have the advantage of something fundamentally different. Much of their financial and operating reality is observable in real time, but the way they communicate with investors hasn’t caught up. Teams still pull metrics from multiple sources, package them into reports, and repeat the process over and over. Investors still have to piece together the story themselves.

Blockworks believes investor relations in crypto should be more transparent, more data-driven, and less burdensome.

In a reimagined IR environment, the goal shouldn’t be to recreate legacy reporting systems. It’s to build something better. An investor relations function powered by live data, standardized disclosures, and a clearer story for the market.

This approach benefits both sides. Investors get a low-lift, high-trust way to understand a business. Teams reduce overhead and can onboard a global investor base from day one.

This is the foundation for what we’re building at Blockworks.

Blockworks Investor Relations

On Tuesday this week, Blockworks launched an investor relations platform for onchain businesses. Cofounder Michael Ippolito announced the product launch on stage at the Digital Asset Summit in New York.

Blockworks Investor Relations has three core capabilities, with more on the way soon.

Analytics + Data-driven Storytelling

Blockworks data powers dashboards that surface your company’s KPIs, financials, and usage metrics, with comparative benchmarks across the industry.

Instead of pulling metrics from five different sources before an investor call, you can explore what’s happening onchain, identify the charts that tell your story, and use that information directly in investor communications.

Branded IR Portal

This is a public-facing site hosted at a domain of your choice to serve as a home for curated charts, quarterly reports, call transcripts, an events calendar, and token transparency filings. Think “the investor relations” portion of any public company website, just reimagined for onchain businesses.

IR portals for BNB and Jito went live this week.

Advisory Services

Blockworks Advisory provides bespoke consulting, quarterly reporting, and investor call support, amplified through a distribution engine that puts this content in the hands of the Blockworks network. Our platform comes with these capabilities to accelerate and simplify the job of IR professionals.

What’s Next

This is just what we’re starting with. Over the next few months, we’re expanding the platform into a full end-to-end solution that enables users to:
