PR in the Crypto Space: More Than Just Hype (and overpriced retainers). In most industries, PR comes down to three things: trust, storytelling, and positioning. But in crypto? It’s a whole different game. You’ve got to add education, credibility, and community alignment into the mix — otherwise you’re just shouting into the void. The tricky part? Crypto moves at breakneck speed. Narratives can flip in a matter of days, sentiment in hours. By the time your press release is polished and sent out, the market’s already onto the next thing. Here’s what really matters in crypto PR right now: 👉 Narrative control – If you don’t define your story, the market will. 👉 Credible placement – Paying for coverage is easy. Building thought leadership and landing real editorials is where the brand power kicks in. 👉 Community > headlines – Hype dies fast if there’s no grassroots belief. In Web3, your story has to resonate with the people, not just the press. So no, good PR in this space isn’t just about “getting in CoinTelegraph.” It’s about connecting your project to where Web3 is headed, and making sure your story still matters long after the hype cycle fades. Because here’s the truth: in crypto, attention is cheap. But trust? That’s priceless.

This nails it. Too many projects confuse visibility with credibility. Real PR in crypto isn’t about noise, it’s about lasting trust.

Absolutely, in crypto, connecting with the community and building trust outweighs flashy headlines. Storytelling and credibility are everything.
