Our crypto KOL list covers 5000+ vetted creators on X, Youtube, Telegram, TikTok and Instagram, plus 600+ streamers on Twitch and Kick. Every creator is checked for audience quality before they can appear on a client shortlist.
We do not publish the full list. Tell us what you are launching and who needs to see it, and within 48 hours you get the names that fit, with audience data and real rates.
The niche matters more than the follower count. A futures trader with an engaged audience of traders will do more for an exchange than a general crypto account ten times the size.

|---|---|---|
| Trading and futures | Chart analysts, futures and options traders, market commentators | Exchanges, perp DEXs and trading tools (trading KOL marketing) |

| Platform | What the creators do | Typical formats |
|---|---|---|
| X (Twitter) | Narratives, market views and launch announcements | Posts, threads, Spaces and quote cycles |

| Twitch and Kick | Live gameplay, trading and demos | Sponsored segments and full streams |
If your users are outside English speaking crypto, put that in the brief. Language and region are part of the match from the start, and we tell you plainly when the pool for a market is thin.
| Check | What we look at | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Audience quality | Follower growth history, audience location and the share of inactive or bot accounts | Bought audiences are common in crypto |
| Engagement | Comment quality, engagement pods and recycled reply rings | Likes can be rented, real conversations cannot |
| Track record | Past sponsored posts and, where we have run them before, their tracked results | Shows whether the audience acts |
| Content fit | Niche, tone and how they handle sponsored content | A mismatch costs trust on both sides |
| Reliability | Posting on time, disclosure and sticking to the brief | A missed post can ruin launch timing |
Creators who fail a check do not reach a shortlist, whatever their follower count.
A public spreadsheet of crypto influencers goes stale within weeks. Rates move with the market, audiences change and some accounts start buying followers. A list without current data mostly helps people overpay.
What you get instead is a shortlist built for your project:

Where can I find a list of crypto KOLs?
Public lists exist, but they go stale quickly and rarely show audience quality or current rates. We keep a vetted list of 5000+ crypto KOLs and send a shortlist built for your project, with audience data and real rates, within 48 hours.
How many crypto KOLs are on your list?
More than 5000 vetted creators across X, Youtube, Telegram, TikTok and Instagram, plus 600+ streamers on Twitch and Kick.
How do you vet crypto KOLs?
We check audience quality and follower history, engagement patterns, past sponsored posts, content fit and reliability. Accounts with bought followers, engagement pods or recycled comment rings do not make the shortlist.
Can I get the full crypto KOL list?
We do not share the full list, because rates and audiences change too fast for a static file to stay useful. You get a shortlist matched to your product, market and budget, and you approve every creator before anything is booked.
How much do the KOLs on the list cost?
Micro creators start at a few hundred dollars per post, mid tier creators at roughly $500 to $2500 per X post or thread, and large accounts at $2500 to $10000 or more. Dedicated Youtube videos run from about $2000 to $20000+.
