Crypto research royalty, now "by Blockworks" — and Pro is gone
Messari is one of crypto's reference research platforms: analyst-verified data across a claimed 40K+ assets, 7,000+ research reports, 200+ standardised diligence reports, screeners, token unlocks, APIs and an AI copilot. Checked 2026-08-21, every page carries a fresh banner: "Blockworks acquires Messari", with the site retitled "Messari by Blockworks".
The pricing page tells the sharper story: the long-standing Pro tier no longer exists. Published plans are now Basic at $0 and "Enterprise — Individual" at $5,000 a year — one plan, one price, for individual professionals. Anyone recommending "Messari Pro" is recommending a product the site no longer sells.
The legal entity remains Messari, Inc. (Delaware law, a New York PMB address), with no mention of Blockworks in the terms yet. No licence is claimed and the terms say why plainly: "We are neither licensed nor qualified to provide investment or trading advice" — the platform is research, "for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes only", with binding Delaware arbitration.
For the working analyst the free tier remains genuinely useful; the jump from $0 to $5,000 with nothing in between is the decision point. The acquisition's effect on pricing and product is the thing to watch over the coming year.
