Aether Holdings’ Alpha Edge Media has acquired Coinstack, an institutional-focused cryptocurrency newsletter and media platform with more than 340,000 subscribers, as the Nasdaq-listed Fintech group expands its financial content and data business.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. Coinstack will continue to operate under its existing brand while gaining access to Aether’s technology, analytics infrastructure, and distribution capabilities, the company said.
Founded in December 2020, Coinstack serves a global audience of professional investors, including hedge funds, venture capital firms, family offices, and digital-asset market participants.
The platform publishes curated insights on Bitcoin, Ethereum, decentralised finance, and broader blockchain market trends.
Aether said the acquisition strengthens its expanding media and data ecosystem by adding a high-engagement, institutionally focused distribution channel that complements its existing analytics, researc,h and content offerings.
“Coinstack represents a highly strategic addition to Alpha Edge Media’s portfolio,” Aether Chief Executive Officer Nicolas Lin said, citing the platform’s subscriber base, engagement metrics, and established brand.
He said the acquisition would help scale audience reach, deepen content offering,s and support future data-driven initiatives across digital assets and broader financial markets.
Following the acquisition, Coinstack will benefit from Aether’s technology stack and analytics capabilities, while Alpha Edge Media plans to explore integrating Coinstack’s content and audience insights across its broader platform ecosystem over time.
Alpha Edge Media, a wholly owned subsidiary of Aether Holdings, operates a network of expert-led financial newsletters and investor resources covering public markets, digital assets, and alternative investments.
Aether described the transaction as part of its strategy to acquire and build complementary fintech and media assets aimed at increasing investor engagement, monetising proprietary data and delivering long-term shareholder value.
Aether Holdings is a financial technology holding company that develops analytics-driven tools and market intelligence platforms designed to help investors analyse information, manage risk and identify opportunities across global markets.
The deal highlights a growing trend among fintech firms to acquire specialised media platforms as a way to secure distribution and proprietary audiences.
Institutional crypto readerships are particularly valuable as firms look to monetise data, research and premium analytics while navigating a more selective digital-asset investment environment.
