NEW YORK, July 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alpha Edge Media, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Aether Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: ATHR), a digital-first financial media company dedicated to building, acquiring, and scaling newsletter brands that deliver actionable insights to modern investors, today announced the acquisition of AltcoinInvesting.co, a specialized digital asset research and publication delivering timely insights into emerging digital asset markets and blockchain ecosystems.
This acquisition marks Aether’s entry into the fast-growing digital asset content vertical and is the first execution of Aether Holding’s strategy to acquire financial newsletter platforms to accompany its flagship SentimenTrader.com newsletter. Leveraging this acquisition, Alpha Edge Media intends to deepen its digital asset content offerings while maintaining AltcoinInvesting.co’s brand identity. The acquisition also demonstrates Aether Holdings' broader strategy to invest in niche media properties that serve research-focused, self-directed investors across asset classes.
As demand for credible, digestible crypto and digital asset insights grows among retail and institutional investors alike, the integration of AltcoinInvesting.co expands Alpha Edge Media’s content breadth and accelerates its development towards becoming a leading multi-asset, multi-vertical digital financial media platform.
AltcoinInvesting.co has cultivated a base of altcoin-focused investors and traders. Known for delivering clear, actionable research across altcoins, decentralized finance (or DeFi), and emerging blockchain ecosystems, AltcoinInvesting.co has earned a reputation for high-quality insights and strong audience engagement, making it a natural fit within Alpha Edge Media’s expanding portfolio.
“This acquisition marks a strategic entry point for us into the digital asset ecosystem,” said Nicolas Lin, Chief Executive Officer of Aether Holdings. “AltcoinInvesting.co gives us a foundation to build a digital asset vertical with the same ambition we've applied to traditional equity markets. We created Alpha Edge to acquire just these sorts of properties, and as Aether scales Alpha Edge into a next-generation financial media platform, we’re intentionally acquiring brands with distinct editorial voices, highly engaged communities, and a research-first ethos. We believe high-quality media, paired with the right technology and data, creates value and an edge for our readers.”
Alpha Edge Media acquired all of AltcoinInvesting.co’s operational assets, including its intellectual property and subscriber base, in an all-cash transaction.
