Jason YanowitzEvery podcast appearance, updated as new ones drop

Five years ago, Jason Yanowitz came on the AMO Show running a bootstrapped crypto media and events company doing $25 million in revenue. Since then, he's cut the news division, killed a conference brand, turned over half the company, and rebuilt Blockworks into a data and software platform now valued at $192 million. In this conversation, Jason walks through exactly how that transition happened, what the revenue actually looks like, why his investors asked him to strip media off the P&L, and why he thinks the Substack era is "mostly cope."

Before Blockworks became a $150 million media force, Jason Yanowitz was just a kid flipping baseball cards on eBay - discovering early what it meant to build leverage online. Raised in a countercultural, entrepreneurial family, Jason never saw the traditional nine-to-five as the only path. In 2017, Jason went to an event that'd change his life, as a result he quit his job, partnered with co-founder Mike Ippolito, and within 60 days, BlockWorks hosted its first event. Every success since has been iterative: from cold-emailing thousands of people to sell tickets, to surviving an 80% revenue drop, to now to raising $12M to go all-in on building at the intersection of media and tech. Blockworks was bootstrapped and survived and has become a $150M powerhouse. I sat down to talk to Jason about his founder journey, lessons for company builders, frameworks for hiring and scaling a company and how BlockWorks is on a clear trajectory to do over $100M a year in revenue.

Ahead of the highly-anticipated Permissionless conference on Tuesday 17 May, we invited Blockworks co-founder and popular industry commentator, Jason Yanowitz , to meet Tyler in NYC. Since its first event – a seven-person Happy Hour – Blockworks has ballooned into a cornerstone of the industry, creating and distributing quality educational content, in addition to organising some of crypto's most impressive events tailored to institutional investors. In this conversation with Tyler , Jason sheds light into how BlockWorks came to be and what some of the factors driving its success are. The two also discuss Blockwork’s wildly popular newsletter and Jason explains that keeping a close eye on who consumes Blockworks content can be highly revealing. He discloses that week prior to JP Morgan making public a major crypto announcement, 120+ employees of investment bank had signed to the newsletter.
