The Drudge Report of Cryptocurrency

So I've been trying to think of something unique I can do in this crypto space that is somewhat unique/different than what I see on a daily basis.

There are a ton of good blogs out there with a lot of stuff and a lot of quality articles.

There are newsletters, discord groups, trading groups, youtube channels, etc. etc.

All of which I don't exactly excel at.  So I decided to make up a list.


Here are a few things I'm NOT and a few skills I DON'T have:

  • I'm not a TA expert so I can't give solid advice at the moment
  • I don't have time to research the web and write amazing articles
  • I don't have some breathe taking personality to make it huge on youtube
  • I have a full time job so I don't have a ton of time to dedicate more than I already do

So what does that leave me with?

Well I still have goals and dreams.  I still have an "idea" I've been working on that nobody offers yet for cryptocurrency.  For now I'll keep it a secret until I get it working. 🤞🤞🤞

But in the mean time, I had a side project I figured I'd mess around with which is a website called cryptodiaries.com  I made the site randomly the other day out of the "what the heck why not" mindset.

I'm not even sold on the name yet, but all the "crypto", "bitcoin" "blockchain" - ENTER KEY WORD HERE <---- sites were all taken.  I mean ALL.

So yeah I settled for that name for the moment.

Here is actually what it looks like right this second:

OK before you think WOW that's the most BASIC website piece of junk I've ever seen....

I made it that way because...well that is kind of my "niche" concept.

Just like lil dicky makes comedy rap...I want to make a hand picked crypto link site.

One website to find good links to all sorts of stuff crypto related rather than going to 20 different sites.


I made the site with a few things in mind:

  • I don't have time to do the research to write great articles
  • There are already great articles out there why not share them
  • I find a lot of stuff maybe before other people do so why not let the masses know about what I find
  • I don't want the site to be cluttered, I want it to be DEAD SIMPLE
  • I want the site to load SUPER fast
  • I want it to be the original "drudge report" of cryptocurrency

For the moment I think I accomplished the points above given the fact I've barely spent any time on the site.  (probably like an hour and a half at most)

I basically just keep the post open all day and when I find some good crypto news I update the post for the day.

The next day I repeat the same thing.  

I'm also a night owl so by the time you wake up I've probably already posted something you haven't heard of because you were sleeping.

Focal Point

As stated before I want this to be the "drudge report" of crypto.  If you have no idea what I'm talking about take a look at that site:

That's drudge report.  It's not pretty.  It's not flashy...but it gets the job done.

In fact 147 million people a month visit that crappy looking site!

It's kind of revolutionized my thinking over the years.  I don't want all the extra stuff, I just want specific news focused just on crypto and that's what I intend to have crypto diaries become.

I don't know if I will ever make it become fully what I desire - that is accomplish my "secret idea" beyond just the links, but I'm excited to try.

I'll keep posting articles on steemit when I get time, but I'm really curious to get some feedback on this idea.

If anyone has any comments/suggestions or would just like to check out the site as it grows...I won't hold you back ;)
