Greetings everybody ;) This is my first Golos english-language post. It'll be about largest news bitcoin and cryptocurrencies portals.
But firstly, let me introduce my #краудсписок project to english-speaking users. If you translate the name of the project, it will become "crowdlist", which means that we are building a community-backed list of cryptocurrencies-related project. All together. And you should join us!
The list contains links to different projects and currently it's in Russian. But we have a plan of translating the notes in the future, along with making a website with all these links and also recording some stuff on video.
I am heading towards bilingual information making so the English and Russian speaking communities could get access to the same high-quality information at the same time. So join my #crowdlist project (just review the categories, and if you find that I missed some useful websites/links, please write them down).
I am translating the topic list so you could navigate thorough it (but note, materials are for the moment in russian, please take care or use google translate maybe):

You can search my other posts (they are in russian, but hey - links are links - you can visit them and review what's inside) by pressing here: #краудсписок
Also, everything will be published as a large ~40 pages google drive document which is already bi-lingual. So you got the idea ;)
Let's start the game with our today's main topic:

- Information is shown for the whole website, while it’s main topic is not news (so news section has probably less visitors)
Some analytics:
- Just 9 out of 25 projects aren't powered by Wordpress (others 16 are). Those who don't use WP are: Joomla, Silverstripe, Bitrix, Reddit, Laravel, Bootstrap, Steemit, Bonfire.
- Total english-reading users 'capacity' of these 24 websites is approx 12 million readers per month. If we compare with Russian segment - there are just 2.5 millions of readers on 17 russian websites. But, anyway, 2.5 millions of russian readers is a large community!
- English websites are more similar to each other, except the largest ones and some specials.
Bonus from @cosmopolit : you can also read crypto-related news either via google news or via interesting project (the guys says that they categorize, check and flag posts): news.hodlhodl.com

Thanks a lot for your multiple links. I will check & add them.
Agree, RSS and Atom support are normal stuff that goes with any blogging engine. Hope Steemit and Golos will soon add RSS/Atom feeds support.
