Benzinga Is Now Available In The Metaverse: Where To Find Its Unique Financial Content
DETROIT, May 9, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Benzinga, a tech-enabled financial media platform that delivers dynamic news, investment analytics, and market information that was recently acquired at a $300 million valuation, is available in the metaverse. The news site launched in the Cryptovexels universe in February, alongside its sister site, Latin America-focused, Spanish-language news outlet El Planteo.
This action made Benzinga and El Planteo the first media outlets in the Western world to launch in the metaverse. Furthermore, no digital newspapers or financial media outlets had launched in the metaverse when Benzinga made its debut.

“There are no precedents that we know of for news media outlets launching in the metaverse”, said Javier Hasse, Head of Content Strategy at Benzinga, and CEO and co-founder of El Planteo. “Thus, El Planteo joins a trend that until now only Time Magazine and Mo Magazine have been able to exploit.”
Brandon Howard, CEO of Higher Life CBD Dispensary, where Benzinga and El Planteo’s new newsstands are located, added, “I couldn’t think of a better partner for this initiative. The metaverse knows no borders and this new alliance is proof of that.”
“At Benzinga we like to experiment, push the envelope, innovate and have fun. This initiative just shows what one can do with a lot of creativity and push for execution,” concluded Chief Zinger Jason Raznick.
What is the Metaverse?
Twitter, Zoom and even WhatsApp could all be considered primitive versions of the metaverse – places we spend our lives online. Our connection to this digital world is currently constrained by many technological factors, although many believe these factors are becoming increasingly marginal.
As virtual reality and augmented reality converge with the trends in automation and artificial intelligence – the metaverse may become a critical hub of human infrastructure in the not-so-distant future. To learn more about the metaverse, visit Benzinga’s education hub.
